ALIQUIPPA, PA — A Pennsylvania Lottery retailer in Beaver County sold a $1 million-winning Mega Millions ticket for the Tuesday, Dec. 24 drawing, lottery officials announced.
The ticket, purchased at the Sunoco located at 156 Pleasant Drive in Aliquippa, matched all five white balls—11, 14, 38, 45, and 46—but missed the yellow Mega Ball 3.
The Sunoco store will receive a $5,000 bonus for selling the winning ticket, while the $1 million prize is subject to applicable withholding.
Pennsylvania Lottery winners have up to one year from the drawing date to claim prizes, and tickets must be validated to identify the winner.
Lottery officials urge players to check their tickets and sign them immediately to secure their winnings.
