Want to cringe? Go to CA's website and pull up 21 NOV 15's winner list. Some soul had five #'s, a million dollars elsewhere...there just over $97K...awful.

It took many weeks for the jackpot to reach $63 million. Everyone was excited and now it may go unclaimed?? Argh

Man, I hate hearing about unclaimed prizes! Some poor schmuck laid down his/her hard-earned cash and then lost, misplaced, forgot about the ticket that is worth $63M! Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh!

I hope the win is claimed before the cut-off date.

Maybe they are in the process of changing their name and getting a make over. They probably don't want people to recognize their name or face when they go to claim the winnings.

What's Alex hurry? I would wager that this is nothing more than an attempt to get the winner in front of cameras only to get peppered with the usual questions.How did you choose your numbers, was it a QP, how long have you been playing? Call back in 9 month's time Alex, in the meantime, plan on making a baby.

Here in California the unclaimed winnings will go toward the Education department. It is all for the kids.

Here we go again. When are some peoples kids going to learn. The lotteries do not need these free loads of cash from people that don't check their tickets. We the players can make better use of this cash. I CAN MAKE 20 FAMILIES HAVE A VERY WONDERFUL XMAS WITH THAT KIND OF WASTED CASH.

The video is off by 30 or 45 seconds.

Yea, that's good enough for telling who is NOT the winner.

The lucky winner still has until Feb 4 2016 to claim there prize. Maybe they're just still waiting for the right moment/getting prepared or they lost there ticket/didn't realize they have a winner. The lottery is saying that the security cams are not reliable but they should check that.

The unclaimed money does not go back to the players of Super lotto plus.

A simple phone call by your attorney, financial adviser, or Certified financial planner, to the Lottery office would solve this problem. Because the Lottery Office does have caller ID you might not want to call them from your home.

Somebody here did not treat their ticket like cash. Or maybe they did and are in the habit of losing money.

If not claimed does the $ go back to players or is it swallowed up by the state

Calif. Lottery looking for $63 million winner

Someone could be $63 million richer, but just doesn't know it yet.

The California Lottery is looking for the winner of a SuperLotto Plus ticket valued at $63 million, which was sold in August at a 7-Eleven store, at 20871 Lassen St., in Chatsworth.

It's been three months since the winning ticket was drawn on Aug. 8 and a winner was announced.

But even after all that time, no one has called to claim the huge prize, lottery spokesman Alex Traverso said. And the time to claim the winnings... [ More ]
