In the state of Colorado, if you win more than $100,000, the lottery will allow you to remain permanently anonymous. Of those who came forward in 2024, at least six winning individuals became millionaires thanks to the lottery. Colorado stores that sold winning tickets resulting in a one million dollar jackpot (or more) include:

  • Winners Corner at 310 N Main St, in Pueblo. (TWICE!)
