July 30 (UPI) -- A man who collected $25,000 from a Washington, D.C., lottery drawing using the numbers 6-6-6-6-6 won a second payout, this time using the numbers 3-3-3-3-3.
The D.C. Lottery said Adewale Awofala was one of several $25,000 top prize winners in the July 22 DC5 drawing, when the numbers 3-3-3-3-3 were drawn.
Officials said the drawing marked a new record for the game, with more than $2.5 million being paid out to winners.
He previously took home a $25,000 top prize from the drawing game in 2014, when he played the numbers 6-6-6-6-6. The more than $2 million paid out to winners from that drawing was a previous record for the game.
