Scratch-Off Enthusiast Can’t Believe Her Eyes

Reisterstown resident claims $30,000 top prize on Bonus Crossword scratch-off

A Baltimore County woman who often plays Lottery games is particularly fond of crossword- and bingo-themed scratch-offs. “Disbelief” is the word that most fittingly describes her reaction to finding a $30,000 top prize on the 6th Edition Bonus Crossword scratch-off.

She purchased the $3 instant ticket at Reisterstown Wine & Spirits in Reisterstown. The store is one of several Lottery retailers that she frequents to buy games.

The Reisterstown resident couldn’t believe her eyes when the scratch-off’s play area yielded 10 words based on what was in her “your letter” section. Those 10 words gave her the $30,000 top-prize win. The winner is still considering plans for her prize.

Reisterstown Wine & Spirits can also celebrate. The Baltimore County business located at 11933 Reisterstown Road will collect a $300 Lottery bonus for selling a $30,000 top-prize winning scratch-off.

This edition of the Bonus Crossword scratch-off went on sale in February with eight $30,000 top prizes and others ranging from $3 to $5,000.
