A Missouri Lottery “$100,000 Jackpot” Scratchers ticket revealed a $100,000 top prize for one lucky Missouri family. 

The husband said the family was on their way home from a tournament when they stopped for gas at Trex Mart, 7812 Highway 116, in Lathrop. After purchasing two “$100,000 Jackpot” Scratchers tickets, the couple went ahead and scratched the tickets in their vehicle.

“I scratched the first number and said, ‘Ah, we won something,’” he recalled. 

Seeing he’d matched 13 of the 15 numbers, he said, “Wow, this is maybe something good!”

The prizes won totaled $100,000. 

“Everyone was just blown away,” he shared. “It was crazy. We couldn’t believe it!”

When asked what plans they had for their winnings, he said that they had purchased a boat just a few weeks earlier.

“Well, no boat payment!” he laughed.
