[LiberalArkie]

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.

He's the 83rd person to win a lottery prize of $1 million or more in Arkansas.

2. That's good, but I'm proud that I got fully vaxxed as soon as I could, with no possibility of

financial gain. That's how much I value my life.
