Ocean City, Parsonsburg players strike it rich in Maryland Lottery
Three Eastern Shore players struck it rich in Maryland Lottery winnings announced for the week ending May 8.
A player from Parsonsburg won $50,000 in the $2,000,000 Gold Rush. The ticket was purchased at Parsonsburg Quick Stop at 7181 Parsonsburg Road.
An Ocean City player scored $25,000 on a Keno ticket sold May 5 at 7-Eleven #19083, 2611 Philadelphia Ave., Maryland Lottery said.
But the biggest prize of $150,000 was won by a player in Queen Anne's County, who played the same Bonus Match 5 combination three times on May 7 at Outpost 544, 1921 Dudley Corner Road in Millington.
Four other players landed prizes of $100,000 each last week in Baltimore City, Capitol Heights, Lanham and Poolesville.
In all, 38 tickets worth $10,000 or more were either sold or redeemed in the seven days ending May 8, and the Lottery paid a total of more than $32.1 million in prizes during that span.
Winners of prizes larger than $25,000 must redeem their tickets at the Maryland Lottery Customer Resource Center in Baltimore, which is open by appointment only. Prizes of up to $5,000 can be claimed at any of more than 400 Expanded Cashing Authority Program (XCAP) locations. All Maryland Lottery retailers are authorized to redeem tickets up to and including $600. More information is available on the How To Claim page of mdlottery.com.
