Wilmington Man Wins $300,000 Playing Cash King Instant Game
Dover, DE — A 76-year-old man from Wilmington is celebrating a $300,000 win after playing the Delaware Lottery's Cash King Instant Game. The winner, who chose to remain anonymous, purchased his winning ticket at Concord Pike BP, located at 2701 Concord Pike in Wilmington, and claimed his prize at Delaware Lottery headquarters on May 4, 2026.
A Delaware native who works as a licensed massage therapist, the winner said he has been playing the Delaware Lottery for many years. While he previously won a $25,000 prize on an Instant Game, this marks his largest lottery win to date.
The winner shared that he discovered the win around 3 a.m. and was too sleepy to fully process what had happened at first. Even now, he said he has not made plans to spend the money on himself. Instead, he plans to use a portion of the winnings to give back to the caregivers who helped care for his 102-year-old mother before her passing last year.
"This is such a thoughtful and meaningful way to celebrate a win," said Featured Instant Games 168赛车®急速开奖官方网站体彩网-开奖历史直播_Delaware Lottery预测最新数据走势图 极速赛车在线开奖直播与直播计划, Director of the Delaware Lottery. "We're incredibly happy for this player, and it's especially touching to see him use part of his prize to honor the people who cared for his mother."
The Cash King Instant Game costs $30 and offers players the chance to win top prizes of up to $300,000, featuring multiple ways to win. Cash King tickets are available at Delaware Lottery retailers statewide, along with a variety of other Instant Games offering exciting prizes at different price points.
