The latest drawing comes after a player in Westbrook, Maine won $3 million following the Monday night drawing. Maryanne Alhamdany, the owner of Westbrook Market where the winning ticket was sold, told a local outlet the winner was a regular customer.
“He’s one of those people that you’re just so happy to see win because he’s just, he is a kind person. He’s always been respectful, always pleasant to wait on,” Alhamdany said.
The convenience store will receive a $25,000 bonus for selling the ticket and plans to use it for renovations.
