REYNOLDSVILLE, JEFFERSON COUNTY - The corner of Main Street and Fifth in Reynoldsville is a lot like the end of a rainbow. Here Diane Gray found her pot of gold.

" Two years ago I bought a $2.00 scratch off ticket, scratched it off and won $5,000" she said.

A local man tried his luck at this local hot spot and on January 5, he won a million dollars in the PA Lottery Millionaire Drawing. 

" I'm ecstatic for whoever won" said John Keith

 

Just a block down from the Uni-Mart at Mike's Bilo they have had some big winners too. In 2012, 4 men won 250,000 and a year before a person won $125,000.

"We're calling it the lucky town, lucky corner" said Mike's Bilo owner,  Ed Galvas.

 

"To have someone win the million that was just fantastic, just fantastic" said Gray.

"We're happy that our nice little town of Reynoldsville is having all this excitement  and nobody deserves it more than out little town" said Mike's Bilo owner,Theresa Kister.


The winner has yet to claim his prize. He has a year to do so.
