MUSKEGON COUNTY, Mich. – A Michigan man recently won a $1 million lottery prize, marking his second big win in just over a year.
The 47-year-old Muskegon County man, who decided to stay anonymous, won the $1 million Millionaire Raffle top prize in the March 26 drawing, according to Michigan Lottery officials.

This comes after the lucky player won half of a $733,968 jackpot ($366,984) in February 2025.
He bought both tickets on the Michigan Lottery’s website.
“I really liked the odds of the Millionaire Raffle game, so I bought several tickets,” the player told Michigan Lottery officials. “I won a $366,984 Fantasy 5 jackpot prize just over a year ago, so when I logged into my Lottery account and saw a notification that I’d won the $1 million Millionaire Raffle prize, I was in total disbelief that I’d won big again!
At first, he thought the message might be a mistake.
“I honestly thought it was some sort of technical error where an incorrect prize notification was sent, so I decided to check back in the morning,” the lucky player said. “I logged in the next day, and to my surprise, the $1 million prize was still pending in my account. I’m still trying to process that I’m here again claiming another huge prize!”
The Muskegon County man said he plans to invest his winnings.
Lottery officials said that the Millionaire Raffle game has since ended. A total of 100,000 tickets were sold, and the drawing took place after all tickets were purchased.
The game featured one $1 million top prize and 100 prizes of $1,000.
