WEST CHESTER, PA — A lucky Pennsylvania Lottery player has won a $1 million prize from a Jumbo Bucks Scratch-Off ticket purchased in Chester County. The winning ticket was sold at Exxon, located at 851 South High Street in West Chester. As a reward for selling the winning ticket, the retailer will receive a $5,000 bonus.
Jumbo Bucks, a popular $10 game within the Pennsylvania Lottery, offers players the chance to win top prizes of up to $1 million. Those interested in learning more about the game, including rules and prize details, can access information via the Lottery’s online platforms.
Players are reminded that Scratch-Off prizes have an expiration date, which is one year from the end-sale date of the game as posted on the Lottery’s website. Winners should immediately sign the back of their winning ticket and contact the Pennsylvania Lottery at 1-800-692-7481 for the next steps.
It’s important to note that Scratch-Offs are distributed randomly, with neither the Pennsylvania Lottery nor its retailers having prior knowledge of where winning tickets will be sold. The location of a winning ticket is only confirmed once a prize is claimed.
For those winning more than $5,000, applicable tax withholdings will be applied. To better understand the chances of winning, rules, and how to play both traditional and online games, players are encouraged to visit the Pennsylvania Lottery’s official site.
