Don’t blink or you’ll miss this Erie winner’s beginner’s luck
Alvaro R. of Erie won $1,450 on his Pick 3 ticket! This was Alvaro’s very first time playing the Lottery, and when he saw he won, he simply “couldn’t believe it”. Alvaro purchased his winning ticket via Player’s Cafe, an online courier service and will use his winnings to pay off car debt. When Alvaro posed for our cameras with his big check, we accidentally captured him with his eyes shut tight (perhaps in disbelief, or in a subconscious attempt to wish for more luck?) Either way, we’re happy to see a new player win big! Congratulations, Alvaro!
