A Port Aransas resident has one million reasons to smile after they claimed one of five top prizes winning a ticket worth a million dollars.

According to a news release, the winner discovered they won the huge grand prize in Texas Lottery scratch ticket game, Millionaire Club.

The ticket was purchased at Stripes Store 40798H, located at 511 W. Cotter Ave., in Port Aransas.

If you are not familiar with the game, the price of the ticket is twenty dollars. The winner told lottery officials they wanted to remain anonymous.
