A Coquitlam woman who recently won $100,000 on a scratch and win ticket said she’s taking off to Mexico — that is, as soon as it’s safe to do so. 

Twila Dugger was at her kitchen table when in a "mind-boggling" moment she realized she had won the Battleship Scratch & Win ticket.

“I kept scratching and saw more and more ships and realized I had won so I got my phone out right away and scanned the ticket,” said Dugger in a press release from the BC Lottery Corporation.

The scratch and win tickets, which riff off the popular board game of the same name, are described as the “first ever head-to-head fame designed for two player social gaming.”

The Coquitlam resident bought the winning ticket from the D & J Husky on Lougheed Highway.
