Five $250,000 Mega Millions Tickets Remain Unclaimed
Friday Night’s Jackpot Rises to $102 Million
 

(Baltimore) – Five Marylanders may be $250,000 richer and not even know it.  There are currently five Mega Millions second-tier tickets that remain unclaimed this year.  And, since there was no jackpot winner last night, Friday night’s drawing now has a jackpot of $102 million.

One of the tickets was purchased at Mars #10 on Belair Rd. in Nottingham for the February 13^th drawing.  The final claim date is fast approaching – the ticket must be claimed by August 14^th.  All Mega Millions prizes must be claimed within 182 days of the drawing date.  The other unclaimed tickets, which have a little longer lifespan, are:

·         April 7^th Drawing:            Purchased at 7-11 on Davidsonville Rd in Crofton

·         June 23^rd Drawing:          Purchased at Royal Farm on Pulaski Highway in Elkton

·         July 28^th Drawing:           Purchased at York Exxon in Cockeysville

·         July 31^st Drawing:            Purchased at Cherry Hill Sunoco in Silver Spring

Since January, Maryland has sold 24 second-tier Mega Millions $250,000 winning tickets.  In addition, 119 players have won the third-tier $10,000 prize.  Mega Millions drawings take place on Tuesday and Friday evenings, and can be viewed on WBAL-TV Channel 11 at 11:22 PM.
