LANSING, February 25, 1999 – Tax season is in full swing, and the Michigan Lottery has a very big return for two lucky Lottery players – if they come forward in time! Two unclaimed prizes are set to expire soon and Lottery officials hope to hear from the winners before it’s too late. The prizes are:

"We want to spread the word to every Michigan Lottery player: check your tickets!" said Michigan Lottery Commissioner Don Gilmer. "We hate to see any prize go unclaimed, and these prizes could really put someone in great shape for the coming year."
Michigan Lottery players have one year from the draw date to claim an on-line prize. The Cash 5 ticket will expire at the close of business Wednesday, March 3. Because the one-year anniversary of the Big Game ticket falls on a Saturday when Lottery offices are closed, that ticket-holder will have until the close of business Monday, March 8 to claim the prize.
Other current unclaimed prizes include:
