ARLINGTON, MASS. (WHDH) - For the second time in three years, Steven Felsher, of Arlington, has won a $1 million prize on an instant ticket from the Massachusetts State Lottery.
Felsher, who claimed his first $1 million prize on July 29, 2016, struck it rich again after winning $1 million in the lottery’s “4,000,000 Payout” $10 instant game.
As he did with his first prize, Felsher chose a one-time payment of $650,000 (before taxes).
Felsher, a statistician, plans to do what he did after the first time he won a $1 million prize and go on vacation with his family. He would also like to buy a new camera and new phones for him and his wife Paula.
Both of his winning tickets were purchased at Broadway Market in Arlington. The store will once again receive a $10,000 bonus.
“I’m happy for the family that owns the market,” said Felsher. “They’re nice people and the bonus will make a difference for them.”
Two $4 million prizes and three additional $1 million prizes remain in the “$4,000,000 Payout” $10 game.
