$5,089,200 in Total Prizes Awarded to 6,000 Winners
MIDDLETOWN, Pa., Jan. 3 /PRNewswire/ -- The Pennsylvania Lottery's
Millionaire Raffle game has created four new millionaires.
The selection of four $1 million raffle ticket numbers and four $100,000
raffle ticket numbers was televised live on the Lottery's drawing show earlier
this evening.
The four $1 million top-prize raffle ticket numbers selected were
00481893, 00019427, 00052620, and 00211264. The four $100,000 second-prize
raffle ticket numbers selected were 00010166, 00057855, 00246558, and
00041162.
The remaining 5,992 winning raffle ticket numbers for third- and fourth-
tier prizes were selected, but were not televised due to time constraints.
A complete list of all 6,000 winning raffle ticket numbers will be
available tomorrow at Lottery retail locations and at www.palottery.com.
Winning raffle ticket numbers will be listed on the Lottery Web site by
prize category in ascending order. The Web site will also feature a "search"
function that allows players to enter their eight-digit raffle ticket numbers
to determine if they hold winning tickets.
To be considered a winning ticket, the eight-digit number printed on a
Millionaire Raffle ticket must match the eight-digit combination selected in
the drawing, in the exact sequence in which it was selected.
The $1 million top prizes must be claimed by presenting a winning ticket
at Pennsylvania Lottery headquarters, 1200 Fulling Mill Road, Middletown, or
at any of the Lottery's seven regional offices throughout the commonwealth. A
list of area offices is available at www.palottery.com.
The $100,000 prizes can be claimed at any of the Lottery's seven regional
offices or at any licensed Pennsylvania Lottery retailer. Claims may be filed
Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. at Lottery headquarters and from
8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. at regional offices.
Holders of Millionaire Raffle tickets worth $1,000 and $100 can claim
winnings at local Lottery retailers.
