Georgia man wins lottery prizes twice in one week

AUGUSTA, Ga. -- A 62-year-old man struck it big twice in the Georgia Lottery. Earl Fritz won the top prize of US$777,777 in the instant game Super Lucky 7's. That dwarfed the US$1,000 he won a week earlier in a different game. The carpenter said he felt lucky a week ago and now feels a little bit luckier.

Fritz said he didn't realize he had won the big prize at first because he wasn't wearing his glasses. The first win came in the instant game Extreme Green.

Fritz and his wife have not decided what to do with the money.
