Dawn Bean of Zimmerman purchased a few $5 Silverado tickets last summer. The tickets weren’t instant winners, so she decided to take a 2nd Chance.

Dawn had never entered a 2nd Chance, but she decided to give it a try. She signed up for a Minnesota Lottery account and said it was so easy, she wondered why everyone doesn’t do it. She entered a few tickets, and then . . . forgot all about it.

Imagine her surprise when months later, she received a call from a Lottery Representative with the news that she had been selected as the Grand Prize winner of a brand new Chevy Silverado! She didn’t believe it could be real. Dawn still wasn’t convinced when she received her prize package in the mail a couple of weeks later. It wasn’t until she met Lottery staff at the Princeton Auto Center and saw a bright red 2021 Chevrolet Silverado Crew RST 4WD with a big green lottery bow, that she believed it could be true! Dawn said, “This is something that doesn’t happen every day!”


The sales staff at Princeton Auto Center gave Dawn a tour of her new vehicle, showed her all the bells and whistles and helped her figure out how to use the many special features. After they filled the tank for her, Dawn and her family took off for a drive around town and celebrated with dinner at Applebees.

We hope Dawn enjoys everything about her new Chevy Silverado.

The Lottery would like to thank the Heartland Chevy Dealers Association; Duluth Chevy Dealers Advertising Association; Your Select Chevy Dealers, Inc. Minn./Iowa; and Select Heartland Chevy Dealers Advertising Association for partnering with the lottery. We would particularly like to thank the entire staff at Princeton Auto Center for making Dawn’s day!
