GULFPORT, Miss. (WLOX) — A Gulfport man won $1 million on the Mississippi Lottery’s $30 Millionaire Maker scratch-off game.
The ticket was purchased at a Shell station in Long Beach on Monday, September 7.
He had already experienced smaller wins on Millionaire Maker, which kept him coming back to the game. The winner said he rotates the stores where he purchases his lottery tickets.
With his $1 million prize, he has a plan for what comes next: a new vehicle and a lot of saving.
For a game that has been on the market for less than a year, Millionaire Maker has already created three millionaires.
The Gulfport winner is the third player to claim a $1 million top prize since the game debuted in January 2026. Seven $1 million top prizes remain.
