WOODBRIDGE, Va. — Danielle Sherred was running errands with her mom when they stopped at the Shell station located at 13890 Noblewood Plaza in Woodbridge. She bought two Big Winning Numbers tickets from the Virginia Lottery. They then discovered that one of the tickets was a $250,000 winner.
“My mom was next to me and kept screaming,” she told Lottery officials as she claimed her prize. “I just remained in shock.”
Ms. Sherred said she had no immediate plans for her winnings.
Big Winning Numbers is one of dozens of Scratchers offered by the Virginia Lottery. It features prizes ranging from $5 all the way up to $250,000. This is the first top prize claimed in this game, which means four top-prize tickets remain unclaimed.
