RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) – Fayetteville has cornered the market on winning lottery games, at least for one week.
The N.C. Education Lottery reports three lottery players in Fayetteville claimed more than $2 million in scratch-off games played this week.
Two people each won $1 million, and a third person took home $150,000.
In addition, a Hendersonville woman won $150,000 in another scratch-off game, and a Gold Hill woman won $100,000 in another scratch-off game.
Still up for grabs is a $221 million jackpot in the Mega Millions drawing, which was scheduled for Friday. Saturday’s Powerball jackpot has climbed to an estimated $162 million annuity, worth $105.5 million cash.
