Robert Lane of Chesapeake told the Virginia Lottery that while on his way home to feed his four dogs, he stopped at the 7-Eleven location on Kempsville Road for something to drink. At the store, he decided to buy a pair of scratcher tickets.
Once he was home, he scratched his tickets, and was shocked to see he won the Precious Gems Series top prize of half a million dollars. Lane says his dogs watched him as he realized he won $500,000.
