It's awesome for the people who win the money." The most recent win was on Aug. 20, when a customer won $1 million on a scratch ticket. A ticket sold on June 10 hit for $2 million, and in March, another $1 million winner was sold at Old South Diner.
Since January of 2023, several stores in Massachusetts have sold two tickets with seven figure winnings, but none in that timespan have sold three, except for Old South Diner. BK called the string of big prizes"mysterious," adding that foot traffic has been up as word gets out about the luck at Old South.and decided to pick up a ticket, according to a news release from the Mass. State Lottery Commission.The other winners were a Hyannis resident who works on Nantucket, and a Boston resident who was on the island to visit his girlfriend.Old South Diner has received $40,000 in total bonuses for the sale of the three winning tickets.
