The gas station at the Boston Logan International Airport sold a winning $100,000 lottery ticket that was claimed on Thursday, Oct. 12, according to the Massachusetts State Lottery’s site.
The winning $100,000 prize was from the lottery’s scratch ticket game called Double Cash, which was released on Sept. 12 this year. It was the first grand prize to be claimed from the game since its release.
The gas station at Boston Logan, located in East Boston, that sold the winning ticket was a Nouria station, the lottery said.
The Nouria station was established at the airport in 2019, at 45 Transportation Way, with pump stations and a convenience store, a release from the company stated.
Additionally, a lottery player purchased five plays on a single “Mass Cash” ticket to win $500,000 Thursday, with the winner buying their winning numbers from a shop in Mattapan called Blue Hill Market.
The winning numbers for the drawing on Oct. 12, were 6, 9, 13, 18 and 19, the Massachusetts State Lottery said.
A $1 million prize sold in Medford from Tony’s Convenience store was also claimed Thursday from the lottery’s “$15,000,000 Money Maker” scratch ticket game.
Finally, a $100,000 prize from the scratch ticket game “300X” was claimed Oct. 12, too, and was bought in Yarmouth from a shop called Bucky’s Convenience.
Overall, there were at least 567 lottery prizes worth $600 or more won or claimed in Massachusetts on Thursday, including 16 in Springfield and 26 in Worcester.
The Massachusetts State Lottery releases a full list of all the winning tickets each day. The list only includes winning tickets worth more than $600.
