A Dillon couple won $200,000 in a Stacks of Cash scratch off lottery ticket.

"He's thrilled, and I'm thrilled," the girlfriend told lottery officials.

"I don't believe it, and he can't believe it either," she added. "Nobody we've told believes us either."

The couple bought the ticket at Breakers in Dillon.

"We've dated for three years," she shared. "This is amazing."

The couple did not want to release their names.

One top prize of $200,000 remains in the Stacks of Cash game. Odds of winning the top prize are 1 in 480,000.

The Breaker's in Dillon received $2,000, a 1 percent retailer commission, for selling the winning ticket.
