Greenville man called his mom screaming after $250,000 win

David Harvard of Greenville wanted to immediately tell someone after a $5 scratch-off turned into a $250,000 top prize.

“I called my mom first screaming that I won,” Harvard recalled.

He bought his lucky 20X The Cash scratch-off from the Speedway on West Fire Tower Road in Winterville.

“It’s really a blessing,” Harvard said.

He claimed his prize at lottery headquarters Friday and, after required state and federal tax withholdings, took home $179,376.

Harvard plans to use some of his winnings to buy a new truck.

The 20X The Cash game debuted in February 2024 with 10 $250,000 top prizes. One $250,000 prize remains to be claimed.
