Edgemere Player Wins Fifth $50,000 Let’s Make A Deal® Top Prize

A dedicated Maryland Lottery scratch-off player from Edgemere realized he’d won $50,000 playing the $5 Let’s Make a Deal^® game, but decided to give the ticket to his son and his daughter-in-law.

For the player, it’s more about playing than winning. He plays scratch-offs and then settles in to watch some TV shows like The Rockford Files or Barney Miller.

The son’s not a Lottery player, but his wife enjoys playing Racetrax.

The winning ticket was purchased at Edgemere Convenience at 7308 North Point Road and the store receives a bonus of $500.

The game went on sale in April and this makes the fifth of its $50,000 top prizes to be claimed.

The Let’s Make a Deal scratch-off also offers a second-chance promotion. Players can enter non-winning Let’s Make a Deal scratch-offs into My Lottery Rewards through Sept. 8 for the chance to win $5,000 cash or a trip to Hollywood. Five drawings will take place, each randomly selecting one trip winner and four $5,000 winners.

The five trip winners will win a four-day VIP trip for two to Los Angeles, CA to see a taping of the Let’s Make a Deal game show. In addition to round trip air transportation and hotel accommodations, each winner will receive $1,660 in spending money, a hosted tour of Los Angeles landmarks, and more. Winners will have the opportunity to visit a costume shop to purchase a costume to wear to the show, where they will “play along” with show contestants for that taping to win up to $3,000.
