A Missouri Lottery player won one of five $100,000 top prizes on a “MONOPOLY™ Doubler” Scratchers ticket he purchased at Midwest Petroleum, 15302 Manchester Road, in Ballwin.
“I’m a sucker for anything MONOPOLY™,” the winner laughed.
Noticing there were only a few tickets left on the roll, he asked his wife if she thought they should buy them.
“We were scratching the last ticket and saw a $20,000 prize,” the winner said. “I was jumping up and down. I was so excited to win!
“After we calmed down a bit, my wife said, ‘Maybe we should finish scratching it!’” he chuckled. “That’s when we found out we won $100,000!”
Players of the $5 “MONOPOLY™ Doubler” game have won more than $6.1 million in prizes since the game was released in February. Currently, there are over $8 million in prizes still unclaimed, including three additional top prizes of $100,000 and one $20,000 prize.
In FY24, players in St. Louis County won more than $200.8 million in Missouri Lottery prizes, retailers received more than $19.4 million in commissions and bonuses, and more than $161.2 million in Lottery proceeds went to education programs in the county.
