Baltimore, Maryland: A $50,000 Bonus Match 5 winner has her husband
to thank for her big win since he picked the numbers for her to play.
Last night, while the lucky winner and her husband watched the drawing
on television, her husband realized they had the winning numbers.
I think we won $400, he said to his wife. That’s when she told him
it was actually $50,000. They immediately called their
daughter to tell her the good news.

The grandmother of seven and great-grandmother of five, came
to Lottery headquarters today, with her daughter, to claim the winning ticket.
The woman and her husband owned and operated a janitorial business
for 32 years before retiring. Still excited about her win, the avid
Lottery player said, I will keep playing the Lottery and
I’ll see you on Monday with the winning Mega Millions ticket.

The 65-year-old plans to give some money to her children
and take a vacation. The winning ticket was purchased at
Weis Market #100, located at 2 Old Camps Road in Frederick.
