While the identity of this lucky winner remains a mystery, we know that the winning ticket was snagged from the Giant grocery store at 46 Bureau Drive in Gaithersburg, Montgomery County. Celebrations extend to the store itself, as it will receive a generous $1,000 bonus from the Maryland Lottery. The fortunate ticket-holder now has six months to claim their life-changing prize. The Lottery advises them to sign the back of their ticket and store it securely until they come forward to collect their winnings.
More prizes, including 19 jackpots, remain in play
When you pick up a $20 FAST PLAY 20X Cash ticket, you're stepping into a world of possibilities where you could win prizes from $40 all the way up to $10,000. But what truly sets the game apart is the progressive jackpot, which kicks off at a dazzling $300,000 and climbs higher with every ticket sold. Once a jackpot is claimed, it resets, ready to soar again from its $300,000 starting point. Recently, an enthusiastic player from Gaithersburg celebrated a jackpot win, yet there are still 19 jackpots waiting for eager winners in the FAST PLAY 20X Cash game. Astonishingly, the first jackpot was snagged mere days after the tickets became available on September 8, 2025.
