A Missouri Lottery player has claimed the first of three $3 million top prizes on a “$3,000,000 Spectacular” Scratchers ticket.
She purchased the winning ticket at QuikTrip, 1450 N.E. 291 Highway in Lee’s Summit, and shared her personal preference for picking out games.
“I like to go for the middle-of-the-pack tickets. Like number 12 in a pack is a good ticket for me,” she said.
Of her reaction to winning, she simply said: “Thank you Lord! “What a blessing!”
So far, “$3,000,000 Spectacular” players have won over $34.7 million in prizes playing the $30 game. Over $73.5 million remain in unclaimed prizes, including two more top prizes of $3 million and two $100,000 prizes.
In FY22, players in Jackson County have won more than $103.1 million in Missouri Lottery prizes, retailers received more than $9.3 million in commissions and bonuses, and more than $50.2 million in Lottery proceeds went to education programs in the county.
