A “Millionaire Blowout” Scratchers ticket caught the eye of a Missouri Lottery player, while he was grabbing a coffee at QuikTrip, 2601 S. 291 Highway, in Independence.
“It was just sitting there, flapping in the wind a bit,” the player teased.
He purchased the ticket and then drove to work.
“I sat in the parking lot and started scratching it off,” he explained. “And the first space I scratched off, I won $1,000!”
Already excited by that win, he continued scratching the rest of the ticket.
“I had to get my calculator to add it all up,” he joked. “But $50,000! Wow!”
The winner also went on to say he plans to use the winnings to pay his house off.
“Millionaire Blowout” is a $50 Scratchers game that offers prizes ranging from $50 to $5 million. Currently, there are over $250 million in unclaimed prizes in the game, including three top prizes of $5 million and 17 prizes of $1 million.
In FY21, players in Jackson County won more than $92.3 million in Missouri Lottery prizes, retailers received more than $9.3 million in commissions and bonuses, and more than $22.4 million in Lottery proceeds went to education programs in the county.
