State Lottery officials say a $1,498,172 winning ticket to the FastPlay Cash Castle game has been sold at the Hucks Store at 540 Fairfield Road in Mt. Vernon.
The lucky winner has one year from the draw date to claim their prize. The Illinois Lottery encourages the winner to sign the back of their ticket and store it in a safe place until they are ready to claim their prize.
As a reward for selling the winning ticket, the store will receive a $14,982 bonus—1% of the prize amount.
Cash Castle is a $30 progressive FastPlay game. The jackpot begins at $100,000, which is the highest starting jackpot of any Illinois Lottery FastPlay game, and grows with each ticket sold statewide until the jackpot is won.
FastPlay is a style of lottery games that are quick and easy, and can be played at any time. There are no numbers to pick, no play slip to complete, no scratching, and no waiting for winning numbers. The Illinois Lottery currently offers 35 FastPlay games at various price points and play styles.
