A Virginia man turned a routine errand into a life changing event when he won a $250,000 lottery prize.
After getting new tires for his vehicle, he stopped at Royal Gas Station on West 14th Street in Front Royal and bought a few scratch off tickets. One of them, a Black Diamond Dazzler game, revealed the top prize.
The odds of winning this prize were 1 in 1,020,000, making his spontaneous decision remarkably fortunate. This win marked the first top prize claimed in the Black Diamond Dazzler game, which launched on March 4th, 2025, according to the Virginia Lottery.
