VIENNA -- A Vienna resident recently won the top prize of $2,500,000 from a Monopoly 200x scratch-off ticket, according to a news release on the Ohio Lottery's website.
Instead of receiving the cash all at once, the man, who was only named as Gary in the news release, chose to receive $200,000 per year for 25 years.
The ticket, which Gary bought from The Beverage Depot in Youngstown, was a $30 ticket.
Gary said he couldn't believe he won, according to the press release.
"I thought I was having a heart attack," he said. "I was shaking so bad; I didn't know if I'd make it home."
The winning prize drops to $1,800,000 after the 28% taxes are taken, according to the news release.
