Seven players, including four in Southern California, have become multi-millionaires playing two of the more popular scratcher games, a Feb. 23 news release from the California Lottery stated.

Michael Herrick also cashed in, winning $2 million on that same game after buying a ticket further north in Danville.
Another popular scratchers game turned five more California Lottery players into instant millionaires.
Instant Prize Crossword Scratchers tickets worth $2 million each were cashed in by Southern Californians in Compton, Los Angeles and Lynwood, according to the CA Lottery.
Winning $2 million tickets were also purchased in Fremont and San Leandro.
Meanwhile, the Mega Millions jackpot has climbed to $525 million for Tuesday’s drawing.
