That's Willie Jean Roberts In The Photo with her grandson, Shawn. She looks happy doesn't she? Well, a few days prior to this photo being taken, she wasn't so happy. In May of 2009, the woman from Franklinton, Louisiana bought some lottery scratch-off tickets. On her way home, she was having car trouble. Her car stopped three times on the ride home. That really sucked. But her mood changed when she got home because she scratched her tickets and won big money on the 5X The Money ticket. That must've made her happy!
Willie Jean Roberts won $100,000 on 5X The Money instant scratch lottery ticket from Louisiana Lottery Corporation. The game costs $5 to play and $100,000 is the top prize. The odds of winning $100,000 on the game are approximately 1-in-2.44 million. There are other smaller prizes in the 5X The Money game, ranging from a free ticket to $1000. The odds of winning any prize are 1-in-3.69.
So, what do you think that Willie Jean Roberts plans to do with her lottery winnings? She said that she isn't sure yet, but she does know that she will buy another car. We think that she'll buy one that's reliable so that she can drive to the store many more times to buy more lottery tickets and, hopefully, she'll have another big win coming in the future.
