Scratch-Off Winner in the Giving Spirit of the Holidays

Robert Davis of Ponchatoula is in the giving spirit of the holidays after winning a $4,000 top prize from the Lottery's $1 scratch-off Hot Dice.

"I bought three tickets — one for my wife, one for my son and one for myself," said Davis.  "Finally, on the third ticket we had a big winner."

Davis, a regular Lottery scratch-off player, said he plans to give most of his winnings to his sister in the spirit of the season.  He said he hopes she and her two daughters can use the money to have a nice Christmas. 

He purchased his winning scratch-off from Jemworks #6 on Highway 22, East in Ponchatoula.
