Ada man wins playing Hot Lotto with Sizzler
Ada — Dustin Sheppard of Ada is celebrating his Hot Lotto win of $30,000. Sheppard tripled his original $10K prize by adding the Sizzler option for only $1.
“Winning a prize this large is one of those things you think is too good to be true,” he said, adding that he regularly plays the Sizzler multiplier.
Sheppard purchased his ticket from T&T; Quick Stop at 100 W. Main in Roff. He doesn’t have any immediate plans for his winnings but said he will probably be spending most of it on his children.
Net proceeds of all lottery games are used to support improvements and enhancements for Oklahoma education. More than $271 million has been contributed to education since November 2005 with funds directed to the higher education capital bond issue and funds directed to the Oklahoma Education Lottery Trust Fund (OELTF). The Oklahoma Legislature appropriates the OELTF.
Proceeds are used statewide to supplement existing funds for a variety of important education purposes, including teacher compensation and benefits, early childhood development programs, college scholarships, classroom technology and construction of educational facilities.
