$400K Virginia Lottery Win For Woodbridge Man

WOODBRIDGE, VA—Go figure. A Woodbridge man says for whatever reason, he saw five numbers in a dream. Not just any dream, mind you. "I've never had a dream like that before," Victor Amole said. So he recently played the set of number four times in Virginia Lottery's Cash 5 game.

Turns out each ticket was a winning ticket worth $100,000 apiece, meaning Amole suddenly became $400,000 richer than he was before that fateful dream. The winning numbers: 3-10-17-26-32. He bought the tickets in Stafford at a Fas Mart, 2142 Jefferson Davis Highway.

Amole, a computer programmer, told Virginia Lottery officials he plans to invest his winnings. His odds of winning were 1 in 278,256.
