Humboldt Resident Marianne Elliot is now $500,000 richer.

She couldn’t believe her eyes when she scratched her $500 grand instant ticket and discovered that she had won the game’s top prize.

“I had to look at it about five times because I was kind of in shock,” she said in a press release sent to northeastNOW.

Elliott was overcome with emotion at her win– and when she called her husband to double-check the ticket he thought something was wrong.
