S.C. Lottery to honor 2 sets of Pick 3 numbers

Oct 12, 2014

COLUMBIA, S.C. — The South Carolina Lottery says it will honor two sets of Evening Pick 3 numbers for Tuesday night's drawing.
One set of numbers (3-6-4) was certified by an independent auditor, while another set (3-6-7) was drawn during the evening Pick 3 drawing.
Players holding Pick 3 tickets bearing the numbers 3-6-7 for the Tuesday, October 7 evening draw must take or mail their tickets to the Columbia Claims Center for processing and prize payment. Sign the ticket back and complete the required information if mailing a ticket. Lottery retailers will not be able to pay on Pick 3 tickets bearing the number 3-6-7.
Payouts for 3-6-4 may be claimed as a player would do for any winning ticket.
"The Lottery is a transparent organization. These are our loyal players, and we honor our mistakes," the Lottery's Executive Director Paula Harper Bethea said. "Our players expect nothing less, and we are going to pay both sets of numbers.
