Catrina Hanton of Fayetteville tried her luck on a new $10 ticket and scored its first $1 million top prize.

“It feels great,” she said. “I’m shocked, very shocked.”

Hanton purchased her winning $1,000,000 Bankroll ticket from the Short Stop on Gillispie Street in Fayetteville.

She claimed her prize Friday at lottery headquarters in Raleigh.

Hanton had the choice of taking the $1 million as an annuity of 20 payments of $50,000 a year or a lump sum of $600,000. She chose the lump sum and took home $424,503 after required state and federal tax withholdings.

“I just plan to help my family out,” said Hanton of her plans for her prize money.

The $1,000,000 Bankroll game launched in November with five top prizes of $1 million. Four top prizes remain to be won.

Ticket sales from scratch-offs make it possible for the lottery to raise more than $725 million a year for education. For details on how lottery funds have helped all of North Carolina’s 100 counties, click on the “Impact” section of the lottery’s website.
