According to the Illinois Lottery, Marcelina Lacson turns $7 million richer. The woman from Wheaton (Illinois) hits a $7.25 million jackpot in a July lottery drawing. 02, 06, 08, 10, 12, and 15 were the winning numbers, and her ticket matched all the numbers.

“I have been surprisingly calm about winning this prize. When the Chicago Cubs won the World Series, I was jumping and screaming, but when I found out I won the lottery, I was very quiet,” the winner said.

Lacson keeps a habit of playing the same set of numbers which is driven by her family birthdays. She is planning to invest her winnings and share with family. She bought this ticket from DuPage Pantry Plus at 238 N. Gables Blvd. So, this shop will receive $72,500 as the ticket selling bonus.
