Annapolis, Maryland. A $50,000 third-tier Powerball prize gave an Annapolis woman who was planning to retire this year an unexpected boost to her plans. Under the moniker Navy Brat, the winner acknowledged that her lucky quick-pick ticket for the January 11 drawing was inspired by her late father.
When my dad was ill, we would play scratch-off games together. “I purchase lottery tickets when I think of my dad,” she said. She eventually learned of her good fortune after buying two Powerball combos at Arnold’s Green Valley Marketplace.
When I checked, I was shocked to see that I had won, she stated. I had to double-check it. It was difficult to read with all the zeros, so I had to get my glasses. She informed her two grown children and close friends of the victory after verifying it.
As she enters retirement this year, the Anne Arundel County resident intends to use her $50,000 prize to increase her financial confidence. Navy Brat stated she might play again in the future when she feels a connection to her father, even though the victory confirmed her timing.
Green Valley Marketplace on Bay Dale Drive is the spot where the winning $4 quick-pick ticket was bought, and they will get a bonus for selling the winning ticket.
