Franklin Park woman Pamela Arscott recently had a stroke of luck when her $10 purchase of a $1,000,000 Celebration Ticket won her the top prize in the Illinois Lottery’s 50th-anniversary drawing. Arscott shared her excitement upon realizing she had won the million-dollar prize after initially forgetting about the ticket she bought at Walmart. She was shocked to discover the matching number and immediately had her daughter confirm the win by scanning the ticket at the store. The winning ticket was purchased at a Walmart in Addison, which will receive a $10,000 bonus for selling the ticket. Arscott is grateful for the unexpected windfall and plans to use the money wisely. This lucky win demonstrates the excitement and potential rewards of playing the Illinois Lottery, celebrating 50 years of creating winners across the state.
