2 $1 million lottery prizes go unclaimed in Virginia, Idaho

2 $1 million lottery prizes go unclaimed in Virginia, Idaho

USA Today6 days ago
Winning the lottery is a dream scenario for many, apparently, except for two lucky ticket holders who didn't claim their jackpots and missed their chance to become millionaires.
Officials with the Idaho Lottery and the Virginia Lottery confirmed to USA TODAY that two $1 million prizes went unclaimed with their claiming period expiring on Monday, June 30.
The ticket in Virginia won the state's New Year's Millionaire Raffle drawing on Jan. 1, 2025, while the ticket in Idaho is from last winter's Idaho $1,000,000 Raffle. The unclaimed prize in Idaho became the fourth $1 million winning draw ticket in the state's lottery history to go unclaimed and the first in more than a decade.
Now that the prizes have gone unclaimed, Idaho officials said the funds will go toward the state's public schools and the 'State of Idaho's permanent buildings – like those on our college campuses.'
In Virginia, the money will go into the state's Literary Fund, which officials said provides low-interest loans to cities for 'public school construction, renovations and technology upgrades.'
