BATES CITY, Mo. – One Missouri Lottery player is $3 million richer after winning the top prize on a “300X” scratchers game.
“I just scratched it off,” the winner explained. “And there it was.”
The player said he loves playing scratchers tickets and picked up the winning ticket while at a convenience store in Bates City, Missouri.
“I was in my car alone at the time,” he said. “It was just pretty shocking.”
