Massachusetts Residents Strike It Rich with Multiple Lottery Wins
In the month of August, the Massachusetts State Lottery had two big winners - one person won $25 million playing the "Billion Dollar Extravaganza" game at a Speedway in Somerville, and another person won $1 million after buying an instant ticket game at a store in Walpole. The winners chose to receive their prizes as lump sums, and the store that sold the winning ticket received a $10,000 bonus.
