Abingdon Virginia Woman Scratches Her Way To 500 Thousand Dollar Winning Ticket

An Abingdon Virginia woman turns a whim into a 500 thousand dollar scratch off ticket winner. Glenna Holmes hadn’t really thought about buying a lottery ticket, but then she said bought a ticket for the Virginia Lottery’s 500 thousand Dollar Cash game on a whim. Holmes, who is retired, says she hopes to use the winnings to travel, although she is still having a difficult time believing her good fortune. Holmes bought the winning ticket at Jimbo’s One Stop on Cummings street in Abingdon. This is the first top prize claimed, which means two more 500 thousand prizes remain unclaimed.
