Pennsylvania Lottery's Millionaire Raffle Drawing Creates Four New Millionaires
$5,089,200 in Total Prizes Awarded to 6,000 Winners
MIDDLETOWN, Penn., July 4 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The Pennsylvania
Lottery's Millionaire Raffle has created four new millionaires. The selection
of four $1 million raffle ticket numbers and four $100,000 raffle ticket
numbers was televised live on the Lottery's drawing show earlier this evening.
The four $1 million top-prize raffle ticket numbers selected were 00364562,
00381511, 00101931, and 00201179. The four $100,000 second-prize raffle
ticket numbers selected were 00309508, 00038421, 00351240, and 00118345. The
remaining 5,992 winning raffle ticket numbers for third- and fourth-tier
prizes were selected, but were not televised due to time constraints.
Players may check winning numbers beginning July 5 at www.palottery.com and at
retailers. Winning raffle ticket numbers will be listed on the Lottery Web
site by prize category in ascending order. The Web site will also feature a
"search" function that allows players to enter their eight-digit raffle ticket
numbers to determine if they hold winning tickets.
To be considered a winning ticket, the eight-digit number printed on
Millionaire Raffle tickets must match the eight-digit combination selected in
the drawing, in the exact sequence in which it was selected.
The $1 million top prizes must be claimed by presenting a winning ticket at
Pennsylvania Lottery headquarters, 1200 Fulling Mill Rd., Middletown, or at
any of the Lottery's seven regional offices throughout the commonwealth. A
list of area offices is available at www.palottery.com. Claims may be filed
Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. at Lottery headquarters and from
8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. at regional offices.
Claims for the $100,000 prizes can be filed at any of the Lottery's seven
regional offices or at any licensed Pennsylvania Lottery retailer. Holders of
Millionaire Raffle tickets worth $1,000 and $100 can claim winnings at local
Lottery retailers.
This was the eighth Millionaire Raffle drawing. For a list of top-prize
winners from the previous seven Millionaire Raffle drawings, visit the
