A longtime Missouri Lottery player in Rolla won a $449,000 Show Me Cash jackpot in the Nov. 1 drawing. 

"I've been playing the Lottery ever since it was invented back in the 80s,” the winner said. “I decided about two years ago to play Show Me Cash."

On Nov. 1, the Show Me Cash ticket he purchased at Casey’s, 1401 E. 10th St. in Rolla, was the only ticket to match all five numbers drawn, resulting in a jackpot win of $449,000. 

“I check my tickets on my phone every night at 9:30 p.m. Those numbers matched the numbers on my ticket and, needless to say, I didn't sleep that night," he laughed.

The winning numbers were 1, 11, 19, 25 and 38. 

Show Me Cash drawings are held daily at 8:59 p.m., with jackpots that start at $50,000 and grow until won. Tonight’s jackpot is estimated at $356,000. 

In FY25, players in Phelps County won more than $7.9 million in Missouri Lottery prizes, retailers received more than $750,000 in commissions and bonuses, and more than $4.8 million in Lottery proceeds went to education programs in the county.
