There was big excitement at the Upper Falls Variety store this morning.  A city worker, one of the regular customers, stopped in this morning and bought a $20 lottery ticket.   With a quick scratch and he realized that he had just won $1,000,000!

With hands his hands shaking, he said he was going to finish his trash route and then head to the lottery office after work to turn in the winning ticket.

When I stopped into the store an hour or two later the place was still abuzz with the news.
