    "In her dream I found a bunch of gold," David Atwell of Kannapolis told NC Education Lottery . "I guess dreams do come true."

    Atwell bought the winning $1 Cash 5 ticket at Jiffy Quick in Kannapolis.

    "I was stunned," he said. "At first I saw the jackpot went back down to $100,000 so I knew someone hit it. I had no idea it was me."

    "He was hollering so much it scared the cat," his wife, Cherie, said.

    After taxes, he took home $598,591. He said he plans to donate some of the money to his church and pay bills.
