Leroy Garvey, Jr., loves to play Hoosier Lottery games as a way to bring some fun to his day. He follows the new Scratch-offs each month and also plays Draw games, especially when the jackpots for Powerball® and Mega Millions® are high.

Leroy is a medical transporter, and he often buys lottery tickets whenever he’s traveling for work and stops to get gas. He was having coffee in his living room when he checked his Powerball tickets and realized he won $50,000. He showed his roommate his winning ticket, and his roommate was immediately jealous that Leroy had won a big prize and not him. “He was so upset,” laughed Leroy.

Leroy is planning to use the prize money to pay some bills and will invest the rest of his winnings.
