Alvern W – Medford — 11/14/24
Not All Monsters are Scary
Alvern, a dedicated pharmacist for the Veterans’ Administration, has called many places home during his 41-year career, but Medford, Oregon, holds a special place in his heart. On a recent trip to visit family there, his wife suggested they stop at Fred Meyer to pick up a couple of Scratch-its.
They chose two Oregon Monsters Scratch-its, and she scratched them in the car. One ticket caught her attention, so she went back inside to scan it. The message on the scanner urged her to see store staff, and that’s when the excitement began — she had matched the symbol for a $30,000 prize!
When asked about their plans, Alvern shared that he’ll use part of the winnings to pay off a bill, while his wife is thrilled to finally build the large picket fence she’s dreamed of for years. The couple couldn’t be happier with their monstrous win!
