FISHKILL – A circus concession worker from Walden is the second person in the state to win $5 million from the Lottery’s Mega Money Multiplier scratch-off game.

Donnie Hayes, 59,  plans on retiring from his job at the Big Apple Circus and moving closer to his sister.

“Well, I’m going to Georgia, buy me a house and settle down and see how it goes to be retired,” Hayes said.

Hayes bought the $20 ticket in New York City on New Year’s Eve when he stopped in a smoke shop to buy a pack of cigarettes. He claimed the prize at the Lottery’s Fishkill customer service center on January 3. He will take home a lump sum of $3.3 million after taxes.
