SACRAMENTO -- Fourteen California State Lottery players have a chance win more than $6 million on "The Big Spin®" show that airs statewide Saturday, January 28, 2006.

Stacy Stamm, a nutrition services supervisor from Huntington Beach, was given a Big Spin Scratchers® ticket by her husband after he purchased it at Ralph’s Grocery. Stacy uncovered Spin-Spin-Spin when she scratched it. This earned her a direct trip to the wheel where she could win up to $3 million. "I always knew I’d get here," said Stamm.
