Who says a losing lottery ticket is always a loser? Not the Mississippi Lottery Corporation.
MLC officials announced Wednesday that it awarded $1.8 million through its 2nd Chance promotional drawing held a day earlier.
Of the winners, who will be notified by mail in the coming days or weeks, a Clinton player won $1 million after resubmitting a non-winning $20 My Lottery Dream Home scratch-off ticket purchased at Fleet Way #143. A Meridian player claimed a $500,000 prize on a $20 $100 Million Extravaganza scratch-off ticket purchased at Hampton Shell, while an Oxford player won $100,000 on a $5 Cash in a Flash scratch-off ticket bought at Habits Discount Tobacco & Beverage.
