A Massachusetts man who has hit it big playing the lottery before is a winner once again, and he's sharing the wealth with his son.

Eugene Girard bought eight identical Mass Cash tickets at Pam's Market in Norwood, and matched all five numbers from the Oct. 24 midday drawing. Each winning ticket was worth $100,000 before taxes.

Girard claimed seven of the winning tickets for himself for a combined total of $700,000, and gave one $100,000 winner to his son, Matthew Girard.

Won with "sentimental numbers"

Eugene Girard said he went with "sentimental numbers" that he plays on a regular basis. He plans to buy a car with the money, make home improvements and save. His son said he's looking to buy a car and invest his money.
