Winning $2.65 million Match 6 Lotto ticket sold at Stover’s News, Columbia


A jackpot-winning Match 6 Lotto ticket worth $2.65 million sold by a Columbia,  Lancaster County retailer for the Monday, September 21, drawing was the game’s highest jackpot win thus far during 2015.
The ticket correctly matched all six winning numbers, 10-14-15-16-23-25, to win a jackpot of $2,650,000, less 25 percent federal withholding. The jackpot had been growing since one ticket matched all six winning numbers in the July 6 drawing.
Stover’s News, 24 N. 3rd Street earns a $10,000 bonus for selling this winning ticket.  The identity of the jackpot winner cannot be confirmed until the prize is claimed and the ticket is validated. Match 6 winners have one year from the drawing date to claim prizes.
