A Maryland Lottery player in Catonsville had the ultimate payday today, thanks to a $30 FAST PLAY purchase. A ticket worth more than $2.2 million was sold at the Exxon station at 6037 Baltimore National Pike in the Baltimore County community.
The FAST PLAY Ultimate Payday game launched in July 2025. This is the game’s first progressive jackpot win. The jackpot resets to $500,000 and grows a little each time a non-jackpot winner is sold.
The Lottery urges winners to sign the backs of winning tickets and keep them safe. For FAST PLAY games, winners have 182 days from the purchase date to claim their prizes.
Instructions for claiming prizes are available on the How to Claim page of the Lottery website. Prizes of more than $25,000 must be claimed through Lottery headquarters, either in person or by mail. Lottery headquarters is in the Montgomery Park Business Center, 1800 Washington Blvd., Suite 330, in Baltimore. An appointment is required to claim a prize in person (no walk-ins).
