LANSING, MI -- Lottery players are once again being asked to look through their old tickets as a $1 million winning Powerball ticket sold in Michigan will expire if it’s not claimed by Thursday afternoon. The winning ticket was sold for the Powerball drawing on May 5, 2021 and matched all five white numbers drawn -- 16-23-28-40-63 -- to win the prize.
The winning ticket was sold at the Warren Market, located at 28069 Mound Road in Warren. Winning Powerball tickets are valid for one year after the drawing date.
The winner must contact the Michigan Lottery Player Relations Division at (517) 373-1237 to schedule an appointment in order to claim the prize. If the winner does not claim the prize by 4:45 p.m on Thursday, May 5, the money will go to the state’s School Aid Fund.
The search for the $1 million winner comes a week after a winning Powerball ticket worth $150,000 went unclaimed. That ticket was sold in Clarkston.
The largest unclaimed ticket in state history is a $34 million Michigan Lotto ticket sold in 1998. The winner of that prize never claimed it and the entire $34 million also went to the state’s School Aid Fund. That ticket was sold at the Meijer located at 1350 West Lake Lansing Road in East Lansing.
