Ramona Ramirez
$50,000 Winner on DC-5
Sister Watch Wins $50,000
"Sometimes my sister plays the numbers for me," said Ramona Ramirez of Northwest, D.C.. who won $50,000 with DC 5. "She watches [the drawing] on TV, and she called me to tell me that I had won." Happy and excited about her win, Ramirez said she plays the same numbers at the same store. She plans to use her cash prize to pay off debt -- just in time for Christmas. She bought her winning ticket at Amanuel Market, 3661 Georgia Avenue, NW.
