Small-town Pennsylvania store cashes in with giant lottery win

Lucky Butler County ticket turns ordinary convenience stop into massive payday

EVANS CITY, Pa. — A Pennsylvania Lottery player is suddenly $1 million richer after a winning scratch-off ticket was sold at a small Butler County convenience store.

Lottery officials announced Tuesday that a $1 million-winning Win Win Win Scratch-Off ticket was sold at Uni Express, located at 128 East Main St. in Evans City Borough.

The retailer will receive a $5,000 bonus for selling the winning ticket.

Win Win Win is a $10 Pennsylvania Lottery scratch-off game that offers top prizes of $1 million.

Lottery officials have not yet identified the winner.

The Pennsylvania Lottery reminded players that scratch-off prizes expire one year after the game’s official end-sale date.

Officials also noted that winning scratch-off tickets are distributed randomly and retailers do not know when a jackpot-winning ticket is sold until it is officially claimed.

All Pennsylvania Lottery prizes exceeding $5,000 are subject to applicable tax withholdings.
