Easton, Maryland. Earlier this month, a resident of the Eastern Shore celebrated a remarkable milestone by retiring and winning a $50,015 Bonus Match 5 lottery jackpot on the same day.
As part of his weekly routine, the fortunate winner usually purchases Bonus Match 5 tickets at the Easton Crown gas station on North Washington Blvd. On November 4, his winning ticket, which had nine Quick Pick lines for seven drawings, matched all five numbers, earning him the top prize of $50,000 and an extra $15 from another drawing.
Using the Maryland Lottery app, the retiree found out about his victory the next morning. He called it the ideal beginning to his post-work life. He claimed during the claim procedure, “It was the best timing you could imagine.”
The winner intends to use his windfall to settle his debts, while the Easton Crown gas station will get a $500 bonus for selling the top-prize ticket.
