(Clive) A Glenwood man won a $100,000 lottery prize.
Jacob Harper, 33, of Glenwood, won the 16th top prize in the game. He bought his winning ticket at Casey’s, 601 S. Locust St. in Glenwood and scratched it at home late at night after a get-together with friends.
He said it felt like time stopped as soon as he realized he’d completed six words on his ticket to win one of the game’s top prizes.
Harper said his big win comes at a great time. He plans to quit his current job to go full time at the computer business that he and his friends started.
The $100,000 Mega Crossword is a $10 scratch game that features overall odds of 1 in 3.30 and 38 top prizes of $100,000.
