$104,000 Lottery Winner, a Grandfather, Says, “I’ll Give it to the Grandkids”
Bethel Pippin got his first look at what the new year will bring since winning a prize from the Georgia Lottery. Pippin won $2,010 a week for one year, totaling a top prize of $104,520 playing the instant game 2010 Cash Celebration.
While on his way to Florida, Pippin, 75, stopped at Shell Food Mart, located on Powers Ferry Road S.E. in Marietta, Georgia, for a ticket and gas. He scratched it in his car.
I said, ‘Oh my goodness,’ ” he recalled. “Then I went on to Florida and had a very nice weekend.”
Pippin is a resident of Cookeville, Tenn. He has no immediate plans for himself.
“I’ve got seven grandkids,” he shared. “I’ll give them money.”
