However, the Lottery has temporarily extended claiming deadlines due to Maryland’s COVID-19 state of emergency.
These lucky players can claim the prizes by mail or in person by appointment at the Lottery headquarters’ Customer Resource Center located at 1800 Washington Blvd. in Baltimore.

These five wins bring the number of top-prize winning Bonus Match 5 tickets sold in 2021 to 13.
The retailers also have reason to celebrate! The Lottery will give each store a bonus of $500 per ticket for selling a top-prize winning ticket in the game.
Bonus Match 5 drawings take place seven days a week. Players select five numbers ranging from 1 to 39. The Bonus Ball drawn from the remaining 34 numbers provides extra chances to win. Your ticket is a winner if you match five, four or three of the original five winning numbers selected in the drawing. If you match the Bonus Ball number, you only need to match four, three or two of your original numbers to win!
