Hoosier Lotto jackpot is fifth largest in history

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. (WANE) - The Hoosier Lotto jackpot has rolled over to $27 million, the fifth largest in the game's history and second largest in a decade.

No players have matched all six numbers since March 2010.

That means Wednesday's $27 million Hoosier Lotto jackpot ranks as the fifth biggest in the game's history. Hoosiers have had a shot at a jackpot this big only one other time in this decade, when the jackpot reached $54.5 million in 2007.

The estimated Powerball jackpot for Wednesday, September 8, is $62 million.

Three Powerball tickets worth $200,000 apiece remain unclaimed in Indiana. The winning tickets, which matched the first five numbers but not the Powerball number, were purchased at the following retailers:

Indianapolis – Gas America, 5179 Lafayette Rd. (Drawing date: 4/21/2010)
Lebanon – Gas America, 1335 S. Lebanon St. (Drawing date: 5/22/2010)
Terre Haute - Marathon Express Mart, 301 S. 3rd St. (Drawing date: 7/31/2010)

Players have 180 days from the draw date to claim a Hoosier Lottery draw game prize.
