ATLANTA – Jessy Beasley of Tarrytown has cemented a new deal. Beasley recently won $10,000 playing the Georgia Lottery instant ticket game Junior Jumbo Bucks.
Shell Minit Mart, 1088 2nd St. North, Soperton, sold the winning ticket.
Beasley, 35, was making a quick stop at the convenience store when he decided to purchase the ticket.
“I just had a lucky feeling,” he said. “I couldn’t believe it.”
He claimed his prize last week at the Georgia Lottery Macon District Office.
