Man wins $1 million on scratch-off bought in Ocean Springs

OCEAN SPRINGS, Miss. (WLOX) — A Mississippi Lottery player won a $1 million prize on a scratch-off game purchased at Keith’s Superstore #89 in Ocean Springs.

The winner bought the $30 Millionaire Maker scratch-off game.

The Alabaster, Alabama, man who won the prize chose to stay anonymous, but said buying lottery tickets has become a regular part of his trips through Mississippi.

He said he’ll split the winnings with family members, keeping a promise they made long before he ever bought the winning ticket.

The $30 Millionaire Maker scratch-off game debuted in January and has already created one millionaire in the state. Following this latest claim, eight $1 million top prizes remain.
