Hensley, Arkansas – Arkansas lottery players saw a night of notable wins and new milestones Wednesday as the latest Natural State Jackpot and Millionaire for Life drawings produced both a six-figure prize and the first significant payout for the state’s newest draw game.
Officials with the Arkansas Scholarship Lottery reported that a Natural State Jackpot ticket worth $180,000 was ordered through the Jackpocket mobile app for the February 25 drawing. The winning numbers were 1, 10, 26, 29 and 36. As of now, the ticket remains unclaimed, and the winner has 180 days from the draw date to come forward and claim the prize.
Lottery officials encourage players who purchased tickets for that drawing to double-check their numbers and ensure their tickets are stored safely. If the prize is not claimed within the allotted time, the winnings will expire.
New game reaches milestone win in Arkansas
Wednesday night also marked an early milestone for Millionaire for Life, the new multi-state draw game that launched in Arkansas on Sunday, February 22. A winning ticket worth $7,500 was sold at Extra Stop #8, located at 20708 Arch St. Pike in Hensley.
The winning numbers were 1, 33, 35, 39 and 55, and the Millionaire Ball was 3. The winner matched four of the five numbers along with the Millionaire Ball to secure the $7,500 prize.
This ticket represents the first time the new draw game has awarded a prize greater than $500 in Arkansas, marking an early success for the recently introduced game.
Millionaire for Life offers players the opportunity to win a grand prize of $1 million a year for life, along with a second-tier prize of $100,000 a year for life. Drawings are held daily at 10:15 p.m., and players must match all six numbers drawn to claim the top prize.
Lottery officials say the combination of an unclaimed six-figure jackpot and a milestone win in the new game highlights the ongoing excitement surrounding draw games in Arkansas. Players are reminded to sign the back of their tickets and keep them in a secure place.
For one Arkansas player, a life-changing prize remains unclaimed, while another has already benefited from the early success of the state’s newest lottery game. For more information about draw games and how to play, players can visit MyArkansasLottery.com.
