Someone won $25K a year lottery prize in Lincoln

Luck was in the air Wednesday as the holders of two Nebraska lottery tickets won big. A Lucky For Life ticket bought for Wednesday’s drawing will pay the winner $25,000 a year for the rest of their life.

In a press release, the Nebraska Lottery confirmed that one ticket sold matched all the winning white ball numbers — 12, 16, 28, 32, and 45. The Lucky Ball number was 01 and was not matched.

The ticket was sold at a Super C at 501 W. A St. in Lincoln. The multistate Lucky for Life game odds are 1 in 1,813,028 for the $25,000-a-year prize.

The prize can be paid as an annuity for the length of a winner’s natural life or as one cash payment. If the annuity option is chosen, a minimum of 20 years’ worth of payments is guaranteed. A second winner bought a Nebraska Pick 5 ticket worth $110,000 in Friend.

One ticket matched all five winning numbers for the jackpot. The winning numbers from Wednesday’s Pick 5 were 10, 13, 30, 36 and 38.

The ticket was sold at Qwik 6, 1535 First St.
