BATON ROUGE – As of today, no one has stepped forward to claim an $80,000 Louisiana Lottery Easy 5 jackpot prize won on March 21, 2020. The winning ticket was purchased at Edenborn Shell, located at 3534 Edenborn Avenue in Metairie, and is set to expire Sept. 17, 2020.
The winning ticket matched all five of the numbers drawn to win $80,000. The winning numbers for the March 21 drawing were 08-17-18-29-33.
“We look forward to the winner coming forward to claim this prize. In the meantime, the individual should treat the ticket as cash,” said Lottery President Rose Hudson. “It is also a good idea to sign the back of the ticket for security purposes.”
The holder of the winning ticket has until 5 p.m. on the date of expiration to claim the prize. In response to the COVID-19 health crisis, Lottery claims offices are open to the public by appointment only. Prize payment options currently available can be found on the Lottery’s website at www.louisianalottery.com/claim.
Winners of the Lottery’s draw-style games must claim their prize within 180 days of the drawing. After prizes have passed their redemption deadlines, they are deposited into the Lottery’s unclaimed prize fund, which is returned to players in the form of increased payouts on scratch-off games and player promotions.
Ticket purchasers must be at least 21 years of age. The Lottery encourages responsible play and urges anyone or friends of anyone with a gambling problem to call toll free 1-877-770-7867 for help.
