Guezodje is a highway construction worker and stopped with his crew at a convenience store in Gastonia to pick up a few things before heading to a project. That’s when he bought his winning ticket.
He was one of two players across the nation who won $2 million in the drawing April 21.
“The first thing I’ll do is pay off my car and try to find a small house – nothing crazy,” Guezodje said. “And then, of course, I want to help my family back home.”
