Two Massachusetts men arrived at the state's lottery headquarters within half an hour of each other on SurpassingJan. 26, with each winning $1 million from the same scratch-off game.

Lawrence Troy from Mansfield and Jonathan Seward from Sheffield are the lucky winners of $1 million from the $5 million 100X Cashword instant game, according to the Massachusetts Lottery.

Troy bought his winning ticket at 7-Eleven in Mansfield. The store will receive a $10,000 bonus, the Lottery said.

Seward won the lottery at Silk's Variety, a liquor store in Sheffield. The Sheffield store, the only lottery retailer in the area, received a $10,000 bonus for selling its first million-dollar ticket, the Lottery said.

Seward was the first person to claim his prize. He told the Lottery officials that he scratched his ticket while enjoying a glass of wine in front of a fireplace after processing some bills. Troy followed 25 minutes later, and both of them chose to receive a one-time payment of $650,000 each before taxes.

Although Troy told the Lottery he has no plans for his new winnings, Seward, who is self-employed, plans to invest his winnings in his business.
