She bought a $32,000,000 Cash Payout ticket from the Virginia Lottery and while sitting in her car in the parking lot, she scratched the ticket to reveal the $750,000 top prize.
“I just threw the ticket down on the floor because I didn’t believe it,” she said.
Hairston works in the health care industry and says she has no immediate plans for her winnings.
The $32,000,000 Cash Payout game features prizes ranging from $10 to $750,000.
Hairston is the first person to claim the top prize, which means three $750,000 prizes remain unclaimed in this game.
The chances of winning the top prize are 1 in 1,162,800. The chances of winning any prize in this game are 1 in 3.4.
