The player matched 10 of the 22 numbers drawn Jan. 19 and her winning numbers were: 03-05-07-09-12-14-18-21-23-26.
She bought her winning ticket at the Quality Dairy, located at 3332 East Lake Lansing Road in East Lansing.
“I stopped at the store to buy a KENO! ticket and decided to play a combination of some numbers I usually play and some new numbers I randomly chose,” said the player. “I checked the winning numbers early in the morning and when I saw I’d matched all of mine, I went numb.”
She continued and said, “I had my daughter read the winning numbers aloud to me to be sure I read them correctly. I couldn’t believe what was happening and thought there had to be an error with my ticket!”
The player says that she plans to save her winnings.
