BREAKING: A lucky player in Ocean County, New Jersey, has just secured a staggering $1 million prize from a scratch-off ticket, as confirmed by the New Jersey Lottery. This exciting win comes on the heels of another player who recently claimed a $1 million Powerball prize, highlighting a string of fortunate events for New Jersey lottery players.
The winning ticket, purchased at Lucky 7 Deli located at 408 Route 70 in Lakehurst, marked the first top prize awarded in the $1,000,000 Spectacular scratch-off game. Launched on November 5, this game features a total of four top prizes of $1 million, and now only three remain after this latest win. The ticket was acquired just days after the game became available, with the purchase occurring on November 17.
In addition to the top prizes, this game also boasts 32 prizes of $10,000, of which only one has been claimed thus far. Remarkably, that $10,000 winning ticket was sold on the same day as the $1 million ticket, indicating a lucky streak for shoppers at Lucky 7 Deli.
But the excitement doesn’t end there. Just days after the $1 million scratch-off win, another player purchased a $5 Emerald 5X ticket from Topshelf Liquor in Kearny, Hudson County, and won one of the game’s three top prizes worth $155,000. This leaves only one of those prizes unclaimed, further fueling the lottery frenzy in the area.
The recent lottery wins come after the announcement of a separate $1 million Powerball prize, underscoring the high stakes and thrilling opportunities for players in New Jersey. While Friday’s Mega Millions drawing concluded without a jackpot winner, the lottery continues to draw attention with its significant payouts.
Additionally, the gaming scene in New Jersey is booming. The Hard Rock Tejon Casino recently celebrated its first ten days of operation by awarding a remarkable $10 million in jackpots, further enhancing the excitement surrounding gambling in the state.
As lottery officials continue to monitor ticket sales and payouts, residents are urged to check their tickets and remain hopeful. The news of these substantial winnings is sure to energize the community and draw more players eager for their chance to win big.
