A South Dakota Lottery player will get a late Christmas gift in the form of $25,000 a year for life.

Saturday’s Lucky for Life drawing resulted in a second prize winner. The winning ticket was purchased at Sunshine Foods, which is located at 530 S. 2nd Ave. in Sioux Falls.

The winning ticket matched 5 of 5 winning numbers and was just the Lucky Ball away from a jackpot win. The winning numbers are 8, 12, 24, 26 and 42 with a Lucky Ball of 17.

Lucky for Life’s second prize gives the winning player the option of $25,000 a year for life or a one-time payment of $390,000.

The South Dakota Lottery advises the winner to sign the back of the ticket immediately and consult with a financial advisor before claiming the prize. The prize may be claimed by visiting any South Dakota Lottery redemption center. The South Dakota Lottery’s Sioux Falls validation center is located at 3605 S. Western Ave., Suite B.

Wednesday’s second prize winner marks the 13th Lucky for Life second prize winner since the game’s South Dakota debut in 2017.

The state’s General Fund, which supports K-12 schools, state universities and technical institutes, receives 70 percent of net revenue from lotto games such as Lucky for Life. The state’s Capital Construction Fund receives the remaining 30 percent. This supports the Water and Environment Fund, the Ethanol Fuel Fund, and the State Highway Fund.
