Maryland Lottery pays out $28.5M in wild winning week

Lanham player snags $1.9 million Multi-Match jackpot as Maryland hands out $28.5M in lottery prizes

LANHAM, MD — A ticket bought at a gas station in Lanham turned into a $1.9 million jackpot this past week, topping the list of 32 big Maryland Lottery winners who collectively claimed more than $28.5 million between Sunday and Saturday.

The winning Multi-Match ticket was sold Saturday at the Forbes BP at 9701 Annapolis Road and remains unclaimed as of Monday. It’s the biggest win of the week and one of the largest in the game this year. The lucky ticket matched all six numbers to take home the full annuity jackpot.

But the Lanham winner wasn’t the only Marylander to hit it big. A $200,000 Ravens X10 scratch-off was claimed in Baltimore from Seena Wines and Liquors on North Charles Street. Meanwhile, dozens of other tickets worth $10,000 or more were sold across the state — including multiple $25,000 PICK 5 winners, one $50,000 Powerball hit, and a series of high-dollar Racetrax payouts.

In Waldorf alone, more than $100,000 in PICK 5 prizes were sold from three different locations, while Clinton, Baltimore, and Catonsville each produced $25,000 winners. Hollywood, MD also made noise with $75,000 in total PICK 5 sales from a single store on a single day.

A $50,000 Powerball ticket, sold Wednesday at a Royal Farms in Hanover, remained unclaimed by week’s end, along with several other high-value tickets scattered across Perry Hall, Edgewood, Essex, and Lanham.

FAST PLAY and scratch-offs contributed to the week’s prize pool as well, including a $10,000 win from a 20X Cash ticket in Edgewater and a slew of $10,000 scratchers across Frederick, Silver Spring, Smithsburg, and Waldorf.

All told, more than two dozen retailers across the state sold tickets worth five figures or more — from grocery stores and liquor shops to gas stations and convenience stores.

Jackpot winners of more than $25,000 must claim their prizes at the Maryland Lottery Customer Resource Center in Baltimore, by appointment only. Tickets for draw games expire 182 days after the drawing date.
