Stanley Woman Claims $100,000 from Gifted Scratch Ticket
A gift worth celebrating

MADISON, Wis. – Janet Pahl of Stanley received a Christmas gift that will be hard to top. Janet's children never know what to get their mother for Christmas so this year, they decided to gift her Wisconsin Lottery tickets—including the holiday-themed $15 Celebrate scratch off. Luckily for Janet, her ticket happened to be one of the lucky top prize winners worth $100,000.

The winning ticket was purchased at Express Mart (401 S. Broadway St.) in Stanley. Retailers who sell winning tickets over $599 receive an incentive of 2% of the winning ticket amount up to $100,000.

The odds of winning the Celebrate top prize of $100,000 are 1:240,000. There is still one unclaimed top prize in this game.
