A lucky Columbus resident is a millionaire this week after scratching off a $1 million prize on the Georgia Lottery’s 2nd Edition Billionaire Club game — a $30 scratch-off ticket purchased at the BP Shell Mart at 5900 Veterans Parkway.
The winner, who has not been publicly identified, claimed the prize as a lump-sum cash payment of $535,398.06 on the same day the winning ticket was confirmed. The 2nd Edition Billionaire Club game offers players multiple ways to win prizes ranging from $100 all the way up to $7 million, making it one of the lottery’s higher-stakes scratch-off offerings.
This is the kind of story that reminds Columbus residents that a big win could be just around the corner — or at the corner store. The Veterans Parkway BP Shell Mart joins a growing list of local retailers that have sold major-prize-winning Georgia Lottery tickets in recent years.
Georgia Lottery proceeds support the HOPE Scholarship and Pre-K programs, meaning every ticket sold also contributes to education funding across the state. Since its inception, the Georgia Lottery has raised more than $30 billion for education in Georgia.
If you haven’t tried your luck yet, Georgia Lottery scratch-off tickets are available at convenience stores, gas stations, and retailers throughout Columbus and Muscogee County.
