RALEIGH, N.C. (WSPA) – An Upstate woman's visit to North Carolina turned into a $1 million lottery jackpot. 'I was like, 'Is this really happening to me,'' said Betty Hill, of Simpsonville. 'I was surprised it was that large.' Hill arrived in Raleigh Tuesday to claim the top prize from a $1,000,000 Loteria scratch-off ticket. According to the North Carolina Education Lottery, Hill purchased her ticket at the Smokey Express on Soco Road in Maggie Valley. Hill told lottery officials that she owns a timeshare in Maggie Valley and travels there frequently. 'I stopped to buy the ticket at the station I always like to stop at,' Hill told the lottery. NC Education Lottery officials said Hill opted to take a lump sum of $600,000 and, after state and federal taxes, ended up taking home $430,503. One top prize remains in the $1,000,000 Loteria game, which debuted in March 2024. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
