Lindale great-grandmother of 6 wins $377K

 
Media release: A Floyd County great-grandmother has rounded up a generous Georgia Lottery prize. Judy Chambers, 62, won a $377,777 top prize playing the instant game Red, White & Blue 7's.

 

With two children, two grandchildren and six grandchildren, Chambers anticipates more playful days with her family.

 

"I've been wanting a place on the lake for the grandkids," she said.

 

Chambers, who lives in Lindale, purchased her ticket at Plaza Food Mart, 1598 Rome Highway in Cedartown.

 

Chambers said she had a lucky feeling about stopping at that store.

 

"Oh yes, I was excited," she said. "I went to the car, scratched it, and I took it back inside. The clerk was happy, too."
