Duplin County man wins $100,000: “I thought I was seeing things”

Bernard Phelps of Magnolia stopped for gas Tuesday morning and couldn’t believe his eyes when a $50 scratch-off purchase delivered him a $100,000 prize.

“I thought I was seeing things,” he laughed.

Phelps bought his lucky $10 Million Spectacular ticket from Tiger Mart on N.C. 24 in Warsaw.

“That was just the first ticket I looked at,” Phelps recalled.

He arrived at lottery headquarters Thursday to claim his prize and, after required federal and state tax withholdings, took home $71,514.

Phelps said he didn’t have plans yet for his winnings but said he would “make sure it gets spent wisely.”

The $10 Million Spectacular game debuted in December with five top prizes of $10 million, 20 prizes of $1 million and 20 prizes of $100,000. Three $10 million prizes, 13 $1 million prizes and 10 $100,000 prizes remain to be claimed.
