Baton Rouge Lotto Winner Dreams of New Golf Clubs

Albert Grady of Baton Rouge was just "one number off" of winning the June 27 飞艇168®幸运体彩预测-全国统一Louisiana在线官方查询结果网-最新体彩预测数据 Lotto jackpot. "I would’ve gotten the whole jackpot!" he exclaimed after finding out his ticket matched 5 of the 6 winning numbers. He did not walk away empty handed, though; the match-5 prize for that drawing was $2,804.

After moving to Baton Rouge from Alabama eight years ago, Grady said he had been playing Lotto off and on, often waiting for a "good size," referring to the $550,000 cash jackpot up for grabs in the June 27 drawing.

Grady indicated this was his first time winning a large amount of money playing the Lottery’s flagship game. In the past he would occasionally win small amounts like $50, which can be cashed at a Lottery retailer.

With his new-found winnings, Grady said he planned to save some and perhaps reward himself with a new set of golf clubs.
"If you don’t play, you can’t win," Grady shared.

Grady purchased his winning ticket at Circle K on Bluebonnet Boulevard in Baton Rouge. The winning numbers for the June 27 drawing were 08-23-25-32-35-40.
