The Jackpot scratch-off game features a top prize of $1 million, with overall odds of winning any prize set at 1 in 3.67.

Lottery officials remind winners to sign the back of their ticket immediately and contact the Pennsylvania Lottery to begin the claims process. Keep in mind that scratch-off prizes expire one year after the game's official end-sale date, and prizes over $5,000 are subject to required tax withholding.

Winning scratch-off tickets are placed randomly across the state, meaning neither retailers nor lottery officials know where the big winners will appear until a prize is claimed.

Since launching in 1972, the Pennsylvania Lottery has generated more than $37.2 billion to support programs for older residents, helping fund transportation, prescription assistance, senior centers, meal services, and other community programs.
