Lottery Ticket Hidden in Woman’s Bible Earns Her $1 Million

A Virginia woman was “tickled to death” when she found that a lottery ticket she had slipped into her Bible for safekeeping was a winner.

Jacqueline Mangus bought the ticket on Christmas Eve, but it wasn’t until after the New Year that she saw on the news a ticket from her town of Moneta had won the New Year’s Millionaire Raffle.

She bought her ticket, #081604, at Lake Mart & Deli, located at 4795 Scruggs Road in Moneta, and was one of five $1 million winners.

“I was tickled to death!” she told Virginia Lottery officials.

There’s no word as yet regarding how Mangus plans to enjoy her winnings, either as a lump sum or as an annuity—the two typical methods offered by state lotteries, but one would think there’s a hefty donation in waiting for her local church.
