‘North Carolina is lucky’: Man wins $100,000 lottery jackpot after recently moving to NC, buying $1 ticket at Food Lion

DAVIE COUNTY, N.C. (WGHP) — After moving to North Carolina less than a month ago, Daniel Brose, of Advance, played Cash 5 for the first time on Wednesday and won a $100,000 jackpot, according to an NC Education Lottery news release.

“I guess North Carolina is lucky,” he said.

Brose said he played a similar game in Florida and Pennsylvania but never won a big prize.

Since Brose moved into a new house less than a month ago, he plans to use his winnings to buy items he needs for his house.

“It’s coming at a good time for us,” he said.

Brose bought his winning $1 Quick Pick ticket from the Food Lion on U.S. 158 in Advance.

He arrived at lottery headquarters on Monday to claim his winnings.

After required federal and state tax withholdings, he took home $71,502.
