Robert Davis of Charlotte walked into a Charlotte grocery store, tried his luck on a $1 Cash 5 ticket, and won Friday’s jackpot of $1,226,664.

Davis bought his $1 ticket at the Food Lion on Cambridge Commons Drive in Charlotte. His Quick Pick ticket matched all five numbers in Friday’s Cash 5 drawing.

The odds of matching numbers on all five balls are 1 in 962,598. Wednesday’s jackpot is $183,000.

Davis claimed his prize Tuesday at lottery headquarters in Raleigh. After required federal and state tax withholdings, he took home $873,998.

Cash 5 is one of six lottery games in North Carolina where players have the option of buying their tickets at a retail location or with Online Play through the lottery’s website or with the NC Lottery Official Mobile App.

Hey there, Roger! While we are always excited to interview our winners, winners aren't required to share stories about their big wins. This winner chose not to share anything more than the public information required by NC laws. :)
