$27M Winning Lottery Ticket Sold in New Lenox

And no one has claimed it! Hopefully everyone still has their ticket from the March 17 drawing.

A gas station in New Lenox sold a $27 million winning lottery ticket for the March 17—and the winner has yet to come forward.

The ticket was purchased at Circle K, 471 Nelson Rd. in New Lenox, and matched all five numbers – 06 – 11 – 35 – 37 – 39 – 44 – to win the jackpot prize in the March 17 Extra Shot drawing, according to the Illinois Lottery.

The Circle K will receive a $270,000 bonus, one percent of the prize amount, for selling the winning ticket.
