Love of the Red, White & Blue Pays off for Pearl River Army Veteran

Paul Rogers of Pearl River claimed a $10,000 top prize from a "Red, White and Blue Cash" scratch-off at the Lottery's New Orleans office.
Paul Rogers of Pearl River claimed a $10,000 top prize from a "Red, White and Blue Cash" scratch-off at the Lottery's New Orleans office.
Being a U.S. Army veteran, the colors red, white and blue have always had a special place in Paul Rogers' heart. That's what prompted him to purchase the $2 Red White and Blue Cash scratch-off. He never dreamed his patriotism would win him $10,000 until he scratched the ticket and found the winning symbol.

"I saw the stack of cash symbol that meant I had won all 10 prizes," explained the 60-year-old Pearl River resident. "Then I scratched and saw all 10 prizes were $1,000!"

Rogers said he plans to use his winnings to fix his old cars and spoil his grandchildren.  He purchased his winning ticket at Jim's Circle Food Store on Highway 41 in Pearl River.

Red White and Blue Cash is a $2 scratch-off game that offers players the chance to win up to $10,000 on each ticket. The game has one remaining top prize as of June 21. 

The game is also one of four games eligible for the Lottery's Hot Spot® Summer Second-Chance Drawing Promotion. Through July 31, players can enter $5 worth of nonwinning tickets from designated games for a chance to win cool summer prizes, including sporting event tickets, road trip getaways and more.

Players must be at least 21 years old to purchase a Lottery ticket.  The Lottery encourages anyone who has a gambling problem or friends and family of anyone with a gambling problem to call toll-free 1-877-770-7867 for help. For security purposes, the Lottery also encourages players to sign the back of their tickets immediately after purchasing.
