Windsor Man Claims "Mega Multiplier!" Scratch Game $1,000,000 Top Prize

Scratching off the "Mega Multiplier!" ticket's barcode, Chris Wujek of Windsor checked it with a ticket checker and got a message he'd never seen before. Thinking he might have won the game's $100,000 prize, Chris handed the store owner of Deerfield Package Store in Windsor his ticket to scan with the lottery terminal. After a moment, Chris heard the owner say, "You didn't win $100,000, but you won $1,000,000!"

Instead of choosing the game's $1,000,000 annuity prize, Chris claimed the $785,000 cash option. "I've been wanting a Corvette, so next summer we'll be getting a nice, new toy, and taking a vacation to Puerto Rico or Aruba. We haven't been on a vacation in five years!"
