A lucky Stratford resident just hit it big, claiming a $100,000 prize from a Cash 5 ticket on Monday! 🎉 The winning ticket was purchased at 24/7 Express on 1607 Barnum Avenue in Stratford.
The odds? Pretty slim—just 1 in 324,632 for hitting all five numbers and snagging the top $100,000 prize, according to the Connecticut Lottery. But as this winner proves, sometimes luck is on your side.
March was also a lucky month for Cash 5 players in Connecticut.
- A Bloomfield resident scored $100,000 on March 6.
- A longtime West Haven player also won $100,000 and was in “total shock” when discovering the win at work. He kept checking his ticket to make sure it was real!
The West Haven winner plans to use the money to pay off credit cards and other debts—a smart move for a sudden windfall.
