"The California Lottery urges last night's winner to sign the back of their ticket in ink, keep it in a safe place, then visit any of the nine Lottery District Offices as soon as possible," said a CA Lottery release. "The winner has 180 days from the date of their draw to claim their prize. Otherwise the money will be redirected to supplement California public schools. We will not know who the winner is until they come forward," it adds.

And the owner(s) of Pacific Market will also get $12,345 for selling the ticket.
