Buckingham County resident won $167k lottery prize in Virginia Lottery

BUCKINGHAM COUNTY, Va. — The friend of one Buckingham County Virginia Lottery winner didn’t believe it was true when her friend announced she had won the jackpot while they were both sitting in the car.

Katherine Moore was sitting in the passenger seat of her friend’s car when she alerted her friend to the news, saying, “I think I just won the jackpot!”

“Oh no, you didn’t!” her friend replied.

But, they both soon realized it was true. Moore had just won the $167,694 jackpot in the Savanna Adventures online instant game. The game is one of the dozens of instant games available on the Virginia Lottery’s website. The odds of winning any prize in Savanna Adventures are 1 in 4.76.
