BALTIMORE, MD—The Maryland Lottery announced that a $1 million winning Powerball ticket was sold in Baltimore County as the game’s jackpot, which reached a near-record $1.787 billion, was won by two tickets sold in Missouri and Texas.
While no one in Maryland hit the jackpot in the Sept. 6 drawing, a Pikesville player matched all five white balls to win a second-tier prize of $1 million. The winning ticket was sold at Slade BP Gas Station at 524 Reisterstown Road.
In addition to the seven-figure win, 12 other Maryland Powerball players won prizes of $50,000 or more in the days leading up to the massive drawing. Overall, Maryland players won more than $13.4 million in prizes during the 42-drawing jackpot roll that began on June 1.
The Maryland Lottery also saw a significant boost in its contribution to state programs and services. Officials estimate that Powerball ticket sales during the jackpot run generated approximately $14.5 million in state funding, with roughly 25 cents of every dollar in sales directed to state initiatives.
Beyond Powerball, the lottery paid out more than $32.6 million in prizes across all games during the week of Sept. 1-7, including 37 tickets worth $10,000 or more. This included a FAST PLAY ticket worth $140,569 sold in Cumberland on Sept. 7.
Winners of prizes larger than $25,000 must redeem their tickets by appointment at the Maryland Lottery Customer Resource Center in Baltimore. Prizes up to $25,000 can be claimed at any of the state’s six casinos. Tickets for draw games expire 182 days after the drawing date.
