California Lottery players win combined $34 million - here's where they bought their tickets
LOS ANGELES - More than a dozen very lucky California Lottery players are millions of dollars richer after striking it big with some very lucky tickets.
The biggest winner is Bradley Bullock, who purchased a Royal Riches Scratchers ticket worth the top prize of $10 million. He purchased that lucky ticket at the 7-Eleven on Prospect Avenue in Santee.
"I knew I’d won before I even scratched it because I scanned the barcode with the Lottery app," he said. "So, I scratched to see if it was real!"
Just the night before, Bullock won $2,000 at a local casino. His lucky streak didn't end there, though.
"The very next night, a buddy of mine was doing a staycation back at the casino, and we ended up combining to win twenty-nine grand! Three days of wild luck," he told California Lottery officials.
