Harrison said he picked up his daughter from work and they stopped at the Friendly Way store on N. Raleigh Street in Rocky Mount where he bought a "Win It All" scratch-off ticket.
"It's incredible," Harrison said. "So many things had to line up for me to win. It all clicked into place. If I had gotten my ticket even a little earlier, I never would have won. She's definitely my good luck charm."
Harrison and his daughter claimed the prize at lottery headquarters in Raleigh. After taxes, he took home $141,501. Harrison wants to use the money to fix up his house and save for retirement.
The $5 ticket launched in December and two top prizes of $200,000 remain, according to the N.C. Education Lottery.
