Vidalia &8212; Someone in Vidalia may be $750,000 richer today.
State lottery officials said someone bought a winning Louisiana Lotto ticket last week at the Raceway service station in Vidalia.
The winning numbers were 7-13-14-15-20-22. No one had claimed the jackpot as of Thursday afternoon.
But Raceway employees were feeling pretty lucky themselves Thursday.
&8220;I&8217;m just really glad it happened at Christmas,&8221; owner Lynnette Moser said. &8220;I&8217;m wondering which one of our customers it is. It could be anybody.&8221;
This is the second time a winning Lotto ticket has been sold at Raceway, Moser said. The last time was about eight years ago.
Raceway &8212; already the top seller of Louisiana Lottery tickets in the Alexandria region &8212; seemed to have an even greater number of lottery ticket seekers Thursday, Moser said. And all of them wanted to know who the lucky winner was.
Raceway employee Debra Traywick said she was glad to be a small part of the excitement.
&8220;It&8217;s wonderful to have that happen here,&8221; she said. &8220;I wish it would have been me!&8221;
Before this week, the last winner in Louisiana Lotto came in October, lottery officials said.
