Anonymous Mega Millions $1M Ticket Nears Expiry Missouri

An anonymous Mega Millions player in Missouri holds a $1 million winning ticket from the November 15, 2024 drawing, but the claim deadline is rapidly approaching on May 14, 2025. The ticket, purchased in Kansas City's Clay County, matched all five white-ball numbers, but the winner has yet to come forward. If unclaimed, the prize money will be transferred to the Missouri Lottery Proceeds Fund to support public education. Similarly, in Florida, a $52,453 prize from a November 25, 2024 ticket bought at a Tampa Mobil gas station is set to expire by May 24, 2025, with other significant unclaimed prizes also nearing their deadlines. Lottery officials emphasize the importance of claiming winnings promptly to avoid forfeiting prizes that ultimately benefit public programs. Players who believe they possess winning tickets are urged to contact their respective state lottery offices before the deadlines pass to claim their prizes.
