GREENSBORO, N.C. — Luck certainly seems to follow this woman from the Triad.

In 2020, Vicki Henry took home $150,000. Now, she's taking home $100,000 after winning the top prize in a second-chance drawing.

“I realize the competition is steep and I guess I’m just very lucky,” she said.

The Season-End Extravaganza second-chance drawing had more than 4.2 million entries. Henry and two others won a $100,000 prize.

“I usually play the second-chance drawings but I definitely pursued this one and really focused on this particular prize,” Henry said.

She said she was surprised to win again.

“I told my husband and he said, ‘You’re so lucky,’” Henry laughed. “I’m just living right.”

Henry took home $71,500 after taxes. 

Henry plans to share her winnings with her family, give some to her church, and invest the rest.
