CHARLOTTE — “I walked in for chicken and walked out with lobster,” Kevin Prast laughed. “Not a bad day.”
In a last-minute decision, Prast stopped at a Food Lion in Charlotte to pick up something for dinner on Thursday.
While there, he bought a lottery ticket.
“It was just a fluke thing,” he said. “It happened on a whim.”
Prast told the North Carolina Education Lottery he’s using winnings to take a tropical vacation. He took home $70,000 from the $100,000 win after taxes.
He bought the lucky $10 Million Spectacular ticket from the Food Lion on Mount Holly-Huntersville Road.
