KENTUCKY (Web Desk) - A man who stopped to buy some breakfast said he lost his appetite when he won $50,000 from a scratch-off lottery ticket.
Garry Hill told Kentucky Lottery officials he stopped for gas and breakfast at Clark's Pump-N-Shop on Paris Pike in Georgetown just after leaving work Monday morning and decided to pick up a 500X scratch-off ticket while at the store.
Hill immediately scratched off the ticket and discovered he had won $50,000.
"I took it to the clerk to check and was told it was for more than they could pay, and I needed to go to Louisville," Hill said. "I wasn't able to eat breakfast after that."
Hill said the prize will allow him to improve his financial situation.
"It's not life-changing, but it's substantial," he said.
