The Thanksgiving and Christmas season has become synonymous with family which makes a recent big State Lottery win all the more heartwarming.
According to the Massachusetts State Lottery, Nathalie Hession of Arlington has claimed the first $1,000,000 prize in the Massachusetts State Lottery’s new “Jingle Jumbo Bucks 100X” scratch ticket game that went on sale October 27.
She chose the cash option on her prize and received a one-time payment of $650,000 (before taxes). She plans to spend time with her family and travel abroad with the winnings.
She purchased her winning ticket at Hemenway Variety, 95 Westland Ave. in Boston. The store will receive a $10,000 bonus for its sale of this ticket.
There are five prizes of $1,000,000 left unclaimed for this game.
