Multiple Big Lottery Wins Reported in Arizona, Including $2.4 Million The Pick Ticket

State lottery officials say several large prizes are still unclaimed and urged players to check tickets before upcoming drawings.

Overview

  • Arizona Lottery officials confirmed that a $2.4 million The Pick jackpot ticket was sold at the Maverik in Littlefield, matching all six numbers from the drawing held on Saturday, Aug. 22.
  • A Mega Millions ticket sold in Phoenix matched four numbers plus the Mega Ball with a 3X multiplier for a $30,000 prize from the Tuesday, Aug. 25 drawing.
  • Two Powerball non-jackpot winners from Wednesday, Aug. 26 include a $100,000 ticket sold at a Fry's in Marana and a $50,000 ticket sold at a QuikTrip in Chandler.
  • Officials published the winning numbers and game odds — The Pick top-tier odds are about 1 in 3,838,380 and the reported Mega Millions $30,000 tier is about 1 in 893,761 — and reminded players how multipliers like Power Play and Mega Millions 3X affect non-jackpot prizes.
  • Lottery officials warned that at least some of the large prizes remain unclaimed, which can delay payout to winners and bring extra attention and foot traffic to the retail outlets that sold the winning tickets while players prepare claim paperwork.
