New Franklin man wins $100k off lottery ticket

Posted

A Missouri Lottery Player in Howard County won one of eight $100,000 top prizes on a “Mystery Prize Crossword” Scratchers ticket he purchased at Caseys in New Franklin.

“I was shocked! I never win!” the winner laughed as he shared plans to “use the money smartly” to pay off some debt. He was not named by the Missouri Lottery Commission.

So far, “Mystery Prize Crossword” players have won more than $17.4 million in prizes since the $5 ticket was released. Over $5.2 million in prizes are still unclaimed, including two additional top prizes.

During FY26, players in Howard County won more than $1 million in Missouri Lottery prizes, retailers received more than $106,000 in commissions and bonuses, and more than $85,600 in Lottery proceeds went to educational programs in the county.
