One ticket matched the winning Lotto 47 numbers drawn Saturday – 17-25-34-37-39-42 – to win the game’s $3.98 million jackpot. The winning ticket was bought at Bryan’s Market, located at 6002 North Lapeer Road in North Branch. North Branch is about 40 miles northeast of Flint.
Saturday’s jackpot win marked the first time the game’s jackpot has been won this year. The Lotto 47 jackpot was last won in December when a lucky player won a $32.91 million jackpot with a ticket purchased at Wild Bills Tobacco, located at 46518 Gratiot Avenue in Chesterfield. That prize set the record for the largest Lotto 47 jackpot ever won.
Saturday night’s big winner should contact the Lottery’s Player Relations division at 844-917-6325 to set up an appointment to claim their prize. Lotto 47 tickets are valid for one year from the date of the drawing.
Each Lotto 47 play is only $1. Players select six numbers from one to 47 for a chance to win a jackpot starting at $1 million and that grows until someone wins it. For an additional $1 per play, Double Play may be added to a Lotto 47 ticket, giving players a second chance to win up to $1.5 million in the nightly Double Play drawing. For an additional $1 per game, players may add EZMatch to their ticket for a chance to win up to $500 instantly. Lotto 47 drawings take place on Wednesday and Saturday at 7:29 p.m. Tickets may be purchased at a retailer or online at MichiganLottery.com until 7:08 p.m. on the day of the drawing.
