In one drawing, a man from Virginia struck it fortunate 24 times, winning $120,000 with his Pick 4 combination. In Pick 4 drawings that result in combinations of the same four numbers, the reward is frequently higher, but one Virginia guy was able to pocket $120,000 all by himself. Due to the popularity of "quads," or number combinations with the same four digits, among lottery players, this is why the prize payout is so high.
