Winner Stories
Jazmine Jones works long hours as a home health aide. When she’s not working, she’s catching up on sleep or helping her mom.
On a whim, Jazmine bought a $5 Money Bags Scratch-off, which was only the second time she had ever played the Hoosier Lottery.
Later, at home in the kitchen with her mom, Jazmine scratched her ticket and didn’t think she had won. She went to throw her ticket away when her mom asked to double-check it. After a careful look, she realized that Jazmine had won the $10,000 top prize! To be sure, they downloaded the Hoosier Lottery app and scanned the ticket to confirm the big win.
“In my 23 years, this is the first time I’ve ever heard my mom scream,” Jazmine said about the moment she and her mom discovered the $10,000 win.
Jazmine plans to pay bills and save the rest of the prize money.
