Samantha Crouch of Taylorsville tried her luck on a new digital instant game on Friday and won the first $150,000 top prize.
Crouch won her big prize playing Skee-Ball. She played $30 to win $150,000 and the odds of that win are 1 in 1 million.
She claimed her prize at lottery headquarters Wednesday in Raleigh. After required federal and state tax withholdings, she took home $107,259.
Digital instant games are played exclusively online on the lottery’s website or on the NC Lottery Official Mobile App. Twenty-two different games are available to play online now.
Alexander County received $5.4 million from money raised by the lottery to help with school renovations. For details on other ways money raised by the lottery made a difference for education programs in Alexander County last year, visit www.nclottery.com and click on the “Impact” section.
