Virginia man wins $3M lottery jackpot three years after his brother won $1M
Published in Weird News
(UPI) A Virginia man found lottery luck runs in his family when he scored a $3 million jackpot three years after his brother collected a $1 million prize.
Danny Mudd of Sterling told Virginia Lottery officials he bought a 50X the Money scratch-off ticket from the Sheetz store on Windmill Parc Drive in Sterling and was in disbelief when he saw he had won the $3 million prize.
"I couldn't believe it," Mudd recalled. I was like, 'No, this can't be!'
Mudd said his win was made all the more unbelievable by the fact that his brother, Terry, won a $1 million prize from a scratch-off ticket in 2019.
The winner said he is still mulling over plans for his windfall.
"It hasn't sunk in yet," he said. I'm just smiling!
