A player of the Arizona Lottery, who prefers to keep their identity undisclosed, recently had a transformative experience. The extremely lucky player bought a $50 scratch ticket and astonishingly won a whopping $5 million.
The player wisely selected the scratcher game called “Set For Life.” In a surprising move, they chose the long-term payout. As a result, they will receive a yearly payment of $250,000 for the next twenty years.
While they may not have lifetime financial security, their financial stability for the next 20 years is unquestionable.
The Arizona Lottery will distribute the complete $5 million over a span of 20 years.
Unfortunately, Arizona Lottery tickets cannot be purchased online. However, the good news is that there are more than 3,000 retailers throughout the state where you can buy these tickets.
On May 30, a scratch ticket valued at $5 million was redeemed. The winning ticket was a Set for Life Scratchers ticket, which was purchased for $50 from Fry’s Food Store. The store is located at the crossing of N. Pinal Avenue and E. McCartney Road in Casa Grande. This city lies between Phoenix and Tucson, near Interstate 10.
Alec Esteban Thomson, the Executive Director of Arizona Lottery, voiced his astonishment to local media regarding the lottery winner’s choice of a long-term payout. He mentioned that it’s more common for large prize winners to select a lump-sum payment.
Winning the $50 Scratchers game opens up unlimited possibilities for the player, igniting their imagination about the implications of a ‘Set For Life’ victory. I can’t wait to see what our next grand prize winner will select. The exhilarating sight of our first ‘Set For Life’ grand prize winner choosing an annual payout of $250,000 for the next 20 years is indeed thrilling.
There are still five top prize winners left in the Set For Life Scratchers game.
The Set for Life Scratchers is a scratch ticket game where players can win up to $5 million by matching their numbers with any winning numbers.
Six major prizes are up for grabs, five of which are yet to be claimed. Additionally, out of the 339 possible winners for the silver prize of $10,000, 332 potential winners are still left.
Players can also register tickets for the Set for Life Scratcher game and other games for the Arizona Lottery Players Club, providing an extra chance to win.
