Mithra Khoshroo, of Laurel, is the second winner in the JURASSIC PARK second-chance promotion, through which she and a guest will be going to Hawaii. Two more drawings remain in this promotion.
Mithra Khoshroo, of Laurel, always wanted to go to Hawaii, and she is getting her wish after winning the JURASSIC PARK second-chance promotion from the Maryland Lottery.
Mithra and her husband like to travel and have been to destinations including Canada and India, but never made it to the 50th state.
“This year we were going to go to Hawaii, but then our grandson was born,” Mithra elaborated.
Players who enter non-winning JURASSIC PARK scratch-offs into My Lottery Rewards are automatically entered and have a chance to win a trip to Hawaii that also includes another chance to win up to $1 million.
Mithra says she is new to My Lottery Rewards and is learning the process of entering her non-winners into the program. She wasn’t sure if she entered their tickets correctly, but realized she did well when she received a congratulatory email message from the Lottery.
“I couldn’t believe it. We never won anything,” The Montgomery County resident said.
Mithra is the second winner in the promotion and will join James Dabney of Baltimore and two more winners on a six-day, five-night trip for two to Hawaii. In addition to round trip air transportation and hotel accommodations in Oahu, each trip winner will receive $1,000 in spending money, a welcome reception and one tour or excursion from a variety of curated tours and activities in and around Oahu. While in Hawaii, trip winners will each have the opportunity to participate in the $1,000,000 JACKPOT CHALLENGE for a chance to win up to $1 million.
The final two drawings are scheduled Dec. 9, 2025 and Jan. 7, 2026, each randomly selecting one trip winner.
The $5 JURASSIC PARK scratch-off from the Maryland Lottery launched on Sept. 19 with six instant top prizes of $50,000. Winners from Washington, D.C and Elkridge have claimed the first two $50,000 prizes, while four top-prizes remain unclaimed.
