Brookshire Brothers Express in Broaddus Scores Another Huge Winner

On rare occasions, the same store has sold two winning Texas Lottery tickets within a year. I'm talking about tickets with huge jackpots; five, six, or seven-digit payouts. Whenever this does happen, it occurs in big Texas metros. Hey, Houston, Dallas, and San Antonio...meet Broaddus, Texas, population--less than 200.

Last summer, the Brookshire Brothers Express on Highway 147 in Broaddus sold a winning Cash Five ticket that matched all five numbers. It was worth a $25,000 payout to that lucky individual who bought that ticket.

Texas Lottery Lightning Strikes Twice in Broaddus

This past week, at that very same Brookshire Brothers Express, somebody walked in, spent $5 on the just-released $100,000 Cash Texas Lottery scratch-off game, and is probably still pinching themselves. The game was officially put into circulation on April 13 and features 5 top prizes of $100,000... well, that's now down to 4.

It seems that about 99.9% of the time, Texas Lottery winners who score major payouts request anonymity, which I'm sure will be the case this time, as well. But, in such a tiny town, I would expect the winner's identity to be a very well-known 'secret'.

Here's A Strange Broaddus Coincidence

In the spring of 2025, the Broaddus Lady Bulldogs basketball team won their first-ever state championship. A couple of months later, the Brookshire Brothers Express sold a winning $25,000 ticket. In the spring of 2026, the Lady Bulldogs repeated as state champs. Shortly thereafter, a $100,000 winning Texas Lottery game piece was purchased at the same store.

Given the loss of only 1 senior, the Lady Bulldogs will once again be in the hunt for another state title. If that comes to pass next spring, you will find me making frequent trips to the Brookshire Brothers Express in Broaddus, buying Texas Lottery tickets.

Another Big Payout in East Texas

Also, within the past week, a Texas Lottery winning "In The Green" scratch-off ticket was sold at the Kroger in Palestine. That was also good for a $100,000 payout.
