A Boone County Show Me Cash player who won a $74,000 jackpot in the Dec. 10, 2025, drawing claimed his prize at Lottery headquarters in Jefferson City on March 23.
“I didn’t know I won until the other day,” the winner said. “I kept forgetting to check it.”

The ticket he purchased at ZX, 126 S. Providence Road in Columbia, matched all five numbers drawn on Dec. 10 – 2, 15, 19, 26 and 34. 

Show Me Cash is an in-state Draw Game with drawings held every night at 8:59 p.m. Tonight’s estimated jackpot is $242,000.
