The Pennsylvania Lottery's New Year's Millionaire Raffle has been making headlines again with its latest round of bonus drawings, where two lucky Western Pennsylvania residents have found an extra $50,000 in their pockets just before the holidays. According to WPXI, the fortunate tickets were sold in Cranberry and Burgettstown, with winning ticket numbers (00114484) and (00098777), respectively.
The local winners, amidst 98,000 other tickets, have just multiplied their festive cheer carrying into the new year. As reported by Audacy, the tickets were purchased at Cranberry SHOP 'n SAVE and Burgettstown Grab-N-Go, establishments that may now see an uptick in hopeful lottery participants, each grasping for their slice of fortune.
Other wins were reported in Erie and Schuykill County, painting a broader stroke of luck across Pennsylvania in anticipation of the Millionaire Raffle's main event. While this raffle, slated for January 4, 2025, boasts four $1 million top prizes, lottery officials remind those holding losing tickets from previous draws not to be too hasty in disappointment, as each ticket still holds potential for future fortune.
