A big winning $777,777 scratch off lottery ticket is sold out in Chicago

Someone in Des Plaines celebrated a big win after buying a scratch-off ticket worth $777,777 from the Illinois Lottery. The player purchased the "777 Jackpot" scratch-off ticket at a 7-Eleven at 1585 Rand Road.

The store will also receive a one percent selling bonus for selling the ticket. This comes after another player in Chicago won that same jackpot in December after buying their ticket at a BP gas station, located at 4300 S. State St in Chicago.

The Illinois Lottery encourages all winners to write their name on the back of their ticket and keep it in a safe place until they're ready to claim their prize.

The winning ticket has sparked a wave of excitement and speculation within the community, as neighbors and friends eagerly try to uncover the identity of the fortunate winner.

The unexpected windfall promises to be life-changing for the lucky resident, who can now look forward to a brighter and more prosperous future.
