Dorchester County Scratch-off Player Lands $1 Million Maryland Lottery Win
EAST NEW MARKET, Md.- A Maryland Lottery player in Dorchester County became a millionaire thanks to a scratch-off ticket, Maryland Lottery and Gaming officials announced Monday.
In all, 29 Maryland Lottery players across the state won or claimed prizes of $10,000 or more, and the Lottery paid a total of nearly $33.4 million in prizes in the seven days ending May 16.
Winners of prizes larger than $25,000 must redeem their tickets at the Maryland Lottery Claims Center in Baltimore, which is open by appointment only. A grace period put in place for tickets that reached their expiration dates during Maryland’s COVID-19 state of emergency ends at 4 p.m. June 30. The standard 182-day claim period goes back into effect after that.
All Lottery retailers are authorized to cash winning tickets up to $600, and approximately 400 Expanded Cashing Authority Program (XCAP) retailers are authorized to cash tickets valued up to $5,000. Prizes up to and including $25,000 can be claimed at any of Maryland’s six casinos with no appointment necessary. More information is available on the How To Claim page of mdlottery.com.
