$1.9 million lottery ticket sold at Pottstown corner store
POTTSTOWN - One lucky customer left a Pottstown convenience store Tuesday with a winning lottery ticket worth $1.9 million, Pennsylvania Lottery officials say.
The Match 6 ticket sold at Pat’s Beverage on East High Street matched all six of the jackpot’s winning numbers -- 3-16-18-39-40-47.
For selling the prized ticket, the lottery will give the store a $10,000 bonus.
Pat’s Beverage also made headlines in March after selling a Powerball ticket worth $150,000 with numbers matching four of the five white balls in the March 18 drawing.
Tuesday’s sale comes just two days after a $3 million scratch-off ticket was sold in Montgomery County at smoke shop Ace Tobacco Town.
