Terry Heinrich of Suffolk, Richard Waitchurch III of Providence Forge and Michael Donovan of Richmond know how to work and play together.
As dispatch co-workers, they occasionally purchase Mega Millions tickets together. Sometimes four or five co-workers play, but for a recent drawing they were The Lucky Three!
“We couldn’t believe it,” they told Lottery officials.
They matched the first five winning numbers in the September 16, 2008, Mega Millions drawing. The winning numbers for that drawing were 13,24,39,51,52 and the Mega Ball was 44.
The Lucky Three bought the ticket at the Lightfoot Pit Stop, 708 Lightfoot Road in Lightfoot. They used the Easy Pick function.
