A big $10,000 winning lottery ticket is sold out in Main Street market

If you happened to have purchased a Mega Millions ticket in Scottsbluff before the start of the past weekend, you may have a winner in your pocket, wallet or purse.

Nebraska Lottery officials say one ticket sold at Main Street Market for last Friday night’s Mega Millions drawing is worth $10,000.

That winning ticket had four of the five regular numbers plus the Mega ball, and was the top prize figure in Nebraska for that drawing.

The winner has 180 days to claim the prize, which requires an in-person visit to Nebraska Lottery’s headquarters in Lincoln.

The winning ticket has sparked a wave of excitement and speculation within the community, as neighbors and friends eagerly try to uncover the identity of the fortunate winner.

The unexpected windfall promises to be life-changing for the lucky resident, who can now look forward to a brighter and more prosperous future.
