Vacations with First Class Travel on Tap for Big Spin Winners

SACRAMENTO, Calif.--(Business Wire)--
This week on the California Lottery's Big Spin(R) show, two
contestants won a combined total of $90,000. The show aired statewide
Saturday, June 28, 2008. The grand total won this week was $112,500!

Glenn Casey from San Diego has several things on his wish list. "I
want to travel to the Caribbean, Australia and Europe, remodel my home
and fly first class to a family reunion in Little Rock, Arkansas,"
explained Casey. With his $60,000, he should be able to cross several
things off of his list.

Corinne Rye of Riverside was the contestant who outplayed nine
other contestants in Aces High this week. When Rye told friends and
family she had won a trip to the Big Spin no one believed her because
it was April Fool's Day. "I had to fax the ticket to my aunt so she
would believe me," said Rye. "Once I did that, she knew I wasn't
trying to fool her!" Rye won $30,000 and wants to take her daughters
on vacation and pay some bills with her prize.
