Man wins $1 million from vaccine incentive lottery in Arkansas
LITTLE ROCK, Ark. — A Texas man has won $1 million from a scratch-off ticket he got as a vaccine incentive in Arkansas.
Gary Smith, an Arlington, Texas resident, was visiting family in Arkansas when he went to a health department to receive his second dose of the COVID-19 vaccine last Friday.
After showing proof of his second shot, Smith chose the scratch-off ticket over the $20 gift certificate for the Arkansas Game & Fish Commission.
