Abdulraouf Razaq enjoys playing Scratchers® games, but freely admits that he does play others, too. However, what sent him to the location where he purchased what turned out to be a $250,000 top prize-winning Strike it Rich! Scratchers ticket was that it had “the cheapest gas in town.”
Guess he’s glad he wanted to save some money on gas because now he’s got lots of extra money!
