PHILADELPHIA, PA — A $20 Money Tree Fast Play ticket has made one Pennsylvania Lottery player $629,001 richer after hitting the progressive top prize on Saturday, Jan. 11.

The winning ticket was purchased at the 7-Eleven located at 7607 Ridge Avenue in Philadelphia. The retailer will receive a $5,000 bonus for selling the prize-winning ticket, according to lottery officials.
