Two Virginia winners claimed big prizes last week from scratch-off games. One woman woman won over 750,000, while a man won $100,000.

Joann Cosgrove of Roanoke won $777,777 after purchasing a Scorching Hot 7s scratch-off from Plantation Market in Roanoke.

"I had a feeling I was going to win a large amount," Cosgrove told Virginia Lottery officials. "I was calm. I'd always thought I'd be excited, but I was calm."

The angel number 777 is associated with the self, not relationships. It encourages taking time alone to focus on oneself.

Cosgrove claimed her prize on Nov. 29 but wasn't the only person coming into the Virginia Lottery headquarters to collect. On Dec. 2, a New Canton man arrived to accept his reward of $100,000.

Victor Null purchased a Virginia Lottery ticket called Cash Game from a self-service terminal at Walmart in Short Pump and won $100,000 after scratching it.

After winning the prize, he initially thought of letting everyone know. However, he ended up leaving the store quietly with his young son. Even though he tried to contain his excitement, he did mention that he couldn't sleep much that night.

Null told the Virginia Lottery he plans to buy a new truck and save the rest for himself and his sons.
