A Pennsylvania Lottery sign hangs outside of the 7/11 in Levittown on Monday, Dec. 23, 2024.

Someone out there had a really great weekend, and not just because the Eagles won on Sunday.

A progressive top prize-winning ticket worth $629,001 for the Money Tree game from the Pennsylvania Lottery was sold on Saturday at the 7-Eleven on the 7600 block of Ridge Avenue in Roxborough, according to a press release from the Lottery.

The 7-Eleven will receive a $5,000 bonus for selling the ticket.

Money Tree is a $20 Fast Play game that offers progressive top prizes starting at $400,000.

Fast Play games print on-demand from a Lottery sales terminal or self-service touchscreen vending terminal and are similar to Scratch-Off games, but without the need to scratch a ticket or wait for a drawing.

It is unknown if the recipient of the ticket is aware that they have won the prize. To review a Fast Play ticket, the recipient can either scan it at a Lottery retailer or use the Lottery's official app and scan it using the apps Ticket Checker feature.

The winner should immediately sign the back of the ticket and call the Lottery at 1-800-692-7481.
