CHARLESTON, W.Va. - Brenda Bailey is still on a roll. This week, the 60-year-old South Charleston woman claimed her ninth West Virginia Lottery prize, $7,000 in the Gem 7s instant game.
That brings her total winnings since last September to $159,000 from five instant tickets.
Lottery officials said Friday that Bailey has claimed a total $165,800 in prizes from instant and online games since 2000.
She's not the only lucky one in the family. Her husband Richard claimed a $6,000 instant game prize in January and a $10,000 prize last September.
What the press always leaves out: The Baileys have spend a total $175,801 on lottery tickets since 2000 for a total net loss of $1.
