NEWS INTRO

A South Carolina man said he left a fast food drive-through line without placing an order when he discovered he had won a $300,000 lottery prize.

 

The Anderson man told South Carolina Education Lottery officials he was waiting in a long drive-through line when he decided to scratch off a lottery ticket he had purchased earlier from the Expressway #25 store in Anderson.

 

The player said he was shocked when the $300,000 Money Match ticket revealed the top prize.

 

"I had to double and triple check it," he said. "Then I had to make sure my heart was still working." The man said he ended up leaving the drive-through line without placing an order.

 

In other news, it's national popcorn day

If you want to add a course in place of a study hall for a second semester class, check the open class listing which is available on the EHS Counseling webpage, and Schoology message your counselor with the name of the course and the period that you are switching with a study hall.

   

If you changed your mind and wish to drop a course, we need you to have your parent email your counselor with the requested change.
