A Match 6 ticket sold Tuesday at the Sheetz on Ehrman Road in Cranberry Township hit the $1.27 million jackpot, according to lottery officials. The slip matched all six winning numbers, 2, 8, 10, 25, 42, and 48, and the winner’s identity will stay under wraps until the ticket is validated and the prize claim is processed. The store that sold the winning ticket is in line for a $10,000 retailer bonus once the Pennsylvania Lottery signs off on the claim. Officials are urging anyone who thinks they may be holding the ticket to sign the back of it and stash it somewhere secure.
Where It Was Sold
The winning play was purchased at the Sheetz on Ehrman Road in Cranberry Township. Mapping listings place the store at 2000 Ehrman Road in Cranberry Township, per MapQuest. The store will receive a $10,000 bonus for selling the ticket, as reported by WPXI. The draw produced the 2-8-10-25-42-48 combination that captured the Match 6 top prize and left more than 45,600 other Match 6 tickets with smaller prizes, per that report.
How To Claim
Per the Pennsylvania Lottery, winners of draw games have one year from the drawing date to claim prizes and are urged to sign the back of a winning ticket immediately to establish ownership. The lottery’s winners handbook and help pages lay out steps for claiming by mail or in person and list a claims hotline at 1-800-692-7481 for questions. For top prizes, claimants must complete the required paperwork and present identification before the Lottery validates and pays out an award.
Local Lucky Streak
Sheetz locations have been the point of sale for several notable Pennsylvania Lottery winners around the region, and retailers often attract a surge of attention when a big prize is sold at their pump. Hoodline recently reported a $350,000 Cash 5 winner sold at a South Greensburg Sheetz, underscoring how convenience stores in and around Pittsburgh frequently appear in winner bulletins. Those retailer bonuses and the local publicity can be a modest windfall for the store and a memorable moment for the neighborhood.
What To Watch Next
The winner will remain unknown until the Pennsylvania Lottery validates the ticket and processes the claim, and anyone who bought Match 6 tickets for Tuesday’s drawing should double‑check their plays for the 2-8-10-25-42-48 combination. If you believe you hold the jackpot ticket, sign it, keep it safe, and contact the Pennsylvania Lottery’s claims line for instructions on filing a claim.
