Spokane Shopper Wins $1.2 Million Hit 5 Jackpot in February 26 Drawing

Written by Published

Someone in Eastern Washington is waking up a whole lot richer. A lucky player just scored $1.2 million in the Hit 5 lottery drawing on Thursday, February 26, after matching all five white balls.

🎉 Where was the winning ticket sold?

The jackpot ticket was purchased at a Fred Meyer grocery store located at 12120 North Division Street in Spokane, according to officials with Washington’s Lottery.

Spokane is about a two-hour drive from Kennewick, based on Google Maps — but that drive probably feels a lot shorter when you’re holding a million-dollar ticket.


🔢 Winning Numbers from February 26

If you played Hit 5 that night, here are the numbers you needed:

  • 15

  • 22

  • 24

  • 32

  • 38

Matching all five numbers landed one very lucky player the growing cashpot.


💵 How Hit 5 Works

Here’s a quick breakdown of the game:

  • Tickets cost $1 per play

  • Pick five numbers between 1 and 42

  • Use a playslip or go with a Quick Pick

  • Buy tickets for up to 25 consecutive drawings

Cashpots start at $100,000 and keep climbing until someone matches all five numbers. After the big win, the jackpot reset to $100,000 as of Friday, February 27.


🎯 What Are the Odds?

The odds of hitting the Hit 5 cashpot are 1 in 851,000. Tough — but clearly not impossible.
