PITTSBURGH, PA — Hospitals are places where it's far more common for babies to be delivered than millionaires to be made.

But a Pittsburgh hospital has sold a $1.5 million-winning Cash Spectacular lottery ticket. UPMC Magee-Womens Hospital on Halket Street in Oakland will receive a $10,000 payment for selling the winner.

Cash Spectacular is a $30 game scratch-off game that offers top prizes of $1.5 million.
