Skokie Gas Station Dishes Out $200K Scratch Ticket

The Illinois Lottery has announced that a Skokie gas station sold a $200,000 lottery ticket on Tuesday.

A Marathon gas station in Skokie sold a $200,000 scratch off ticket on Tuesday, according to the Illinois Lottery Twitter account. 

The ticket? Blues Bingo. The winner, who is only being announced as Szabo L., paid $5 for the winning card.

The scratch off may look complex, as it's one of those long rectangular shaped lotto tickets with hundreds of numbers. In short, though, it's pretty much like playing Bingo!
