Lakewood retiree’s lucky numbers pay off big
Alexander G. of Lakewood won $80,002 on his Cash 5 tickets! Alexander played his own lucky numbers (7-17-20-23-29) for the Saturday, August 5 drawing and hit the jackpot four times!
Alexander, who is retired, says he has been playing lottery games for more than 10 years and just couldn’t believe he won - let alone four times! He plans to use his winnings to pay off credit cards and add to savings. Congratulations, Alexander!
Alexander purchased his winning tickets at several King Soopers locations in Lakewood.
Where the Money Goes
Since the very first ticket was sold in 1983, the Lottery has given back over $4 billion for good causes all across the state, at no cost to taxpayers. Lottery proceeds have funded countless projects, large and small, in every community from the Eastern Plains to the Western Slope. See where the money goes.
