Third Ticket Proves Profitable for Scratch-Off Player
Wins $7777 Playing Sapphire Blue7’s

(Baltimore) – A lucky Baltimore player is $7777 richer after scratching his way to the top prize of the Sapphire Blue 7’s scratchoff ticket. On this particular day, the 72-year-old bought three tickets. The third one scratched revealed the big win.

The winner waited until he got home to play the games. “I like this ticket because I always seem to win something,” he said.  Turns out, he won a little more than something. “That third ticket was the lucky one,” smiled the player.

The McDonald’s employee shared the news with his lady friend and proceeded to find a retailer to cash the ticket. The amount was too much for them to cash, so he came to Lottery Headquarters to claim his prize.

The man said he plans to buy some furniture and clothes with his winnings. He will also pay some bills and maybe take a trip. The winning ticket was purchased at Harford Citgo located at 2330 Harford Road.
