ATLANTA – A Georgia Lottery winner scored a second lottery win. Jurlene Reddick, who won a quarter-million dollar prize in March, has won a Premier Atlanta Falcons 2010 Season Ticket Package playing the new instant game Atlanta Falcons $500,000 Touchdown.

Her season ticket package includes two prime lower-level season tickets, season parking pass, $1,000 game day cash and two authentic jerseys.

"Right now I'm sort of in shock," Reddick said of her latest lottery win. "I'm trying to figure it out."

The Thomasville grandmother of six was low on gas when she stopped at Quick Buys Convenience Store #0134, 4539 U.S. Highway 84 E. in Cairo, to fill up and purchase a ticket. She scratched it at the pump.

"At first, I looked and shouted 'What?' " she said. "I called my husband, and he started laughing."

The retired caregiver won $250,000 last March playing the instant game $150,000,000 Slots of Luck. With her prize, she paid bills and vacationed in Florida.

Both Atlanta Falcons fans, Reddick and her husband, Leroy, are happy.

"I'm going to get ready," she exclaimed. "He's definitely excited."

Atlanta Falcons $500,000 Touchdown is a $5 instant game loaded with prize packages and cash prizes of up to $500,000. Enter non-winning game tickets in one of four second chance drawings for the opportunity to win a trip for 10 to an away game, a VIP suite experience for 16 or a trip to an away game for two on the Atlanta Falcons team plane.
