“Lucky” Lady Wins $10,000 Playing Connecticut Lottery

Some people have all the “Luck.”
Tanya Smith, whom I met during her break while working at a Norwalk, Connecticut motel, is one of those people.
Charming, vivacious, and beautiful, Tanya told me all about her most recent win, a second place prize of $10,000, playing a new Connecituct Lottery game, Lucky-4-Life.
Tanya told me she only heard about the game recently and was “intrigued by the chance to win $2,000 for the rest of her life.
“So I tried it.”
She played a Quick Pick, which hit four numbers correctly. She missed the “Lucky Ball, which was 14 that night.” And was consoled by a $10,000 prize.
“Okay. That’s not bad,” she grinned.
Smith, a self-confessed New York Giant football fan, said she wasn’t sure what she was going to do with the winnings. “Maybe spend some on a vacation and do a little shopping,” she said.
By the way, guess what her new favorite game is?
“Lucky-4-Life,” she said, laughing. “What else would you expect me to say?”
Now THIS is great gaming news! What do I do now?

I know a lot of people that won in Connecticut. CT also has a ton of lottery scratch offs to play.
