Tracy Vandevenne, of Frankenmuth, matched the Fantasy 5 numbers in the Feb. 24 drawing to win the big prize: 04-07-08-32-35. She bought her winning ticket at the 7-Eleven, located at 120 West Genesee Street in Saginaw.
“I won $100 on an instant ticket, so I decided to use some of my winnings to purchase a Fantasy 5 ticket,” said Vandevenne. “I used the Lottery app scanner to check my ticket the next morning. My phone buzzed and a bunch of confetti came up on the screen with a message saying I won $105,000. I was in complete shock. I took a screenshot and sent it to my son to tell him the good news!”
