Philadelphia player wins $1 million on Pennsylvania Lottery scratch-off ticket

Middletown, PA – A Philadelphia Lottery player is starting the week as a millionaire after purchasing a Jackpot scratch-off ticket worth $1 million at a local Sunoco station.

The winning $20 Jackpot ticket was sold at Sunoco, located at 440 West Cheltenham Avenue. For selling the ticket, the retailer will receive a $5,000 bonus from the Pennsylvania Lottery.

Jackpot is a $20 game offering top prizes of $1 million. Scratch-off winners have one year from the game’s official end-sale date to claim their prize. Lottery officials remind players to sign the back of their tickets immediately and contact the PA Lottery at 1-800-692-7481 for claim instructions.

The Pennsylvania Lottery emphasizes that scratch-off tickets are distributed at random. Winning locations are only known once a prize has been claimed. All prizes over $5,000 are subject to applicable tax withholding.
