Lottery Jackpot Claimed by Ohio Couple
One lucky couple from Marietta, Ohio just had their life changed forever. Gregory and Shelley West won the $1 million jackpot when they participated in the $200 Million Cash Spectacular instant game. They could hardly believe what had happened to them when they found out they were jackpot winners! So much money came rushing to them overnight!
Even the store manager for Marietta's Giant Eagle, Don Booth, from which the couple bought their lucky ticket, had something to say. This was the store's first jackpot winner in a 29-year history. 'It's great. We're all tickled to death for them. The Wests are regular shoppers here real good people. You always hear about someone winning in Cleveland or some place. This is pretty neat.' Although this wasn't an online casino jackpot or a slots machine jangling jackpot win, the Wests were thrilled, and shocked, to win such a great prize!
What the couple will do with this jackpot money is still unknown. They are still in overwhelming shock over what they have won to know how they will proceed in the near future. In the meantime, the jackpot winners are reveling in their good fortune and celebrating their new local fame with happy hearts and growing joy. Congratulations!
