A Mother’s Day celebration became even more special for one Cincinnati woman, who found herself celebrating a major windfall after winning the $500,000 top prize on the Ohio Lottery’s Monopoly Bonus Spectacular 50X scratch-off game. The moment was life-changing for the winner, who purchased the $10 ticket at Marathon located at 5567 Montgomery Road.

After scratching off the top prize, the winner is set to receive $360,000 after state and federal tax withholdings, which total 28 percent of her prize. While the financial gain is significant, it’s what she plans to do with the money that has captured the hearts of many.

For many families, Disney World represents a magical destination, and for this lucky woman, it will be the perfect way to create lasting memories with her family.

This gesture of spending part of her lottery winnings on a trip to Disney World highlights the joy of sharing such a windfall with loved ones, turning what could have been a life-changing event into an opportunity to enrich the lives of those closest to her.
