Del Rio Sells One of Three Cash Five $25,000 Top-Prize Tickets

One of three top prize winning tickets for the Texas Lottery's Cash Five drawing was sold in Del Rio," the official announcement said, listing the other two top-prize tickets as sold in San Antonio and Vidor and noting, "This brings excitement to the Val Verde County community." The Cash Five top prize is $25,000 per winning play, meaning each of the three locations is associated with a $25,000 prize unless more than three winning plays were recorded in the same draw.

Lottery rules and game data show how that payout is structured: the top prize is $25,000, and if there are more than three winning plays during a single draw, winners would equally split the liability cap of $75,000. The odds of matching all five numbers in Cash Five are 1 in 324,632, and the overall odds of winning any prize are 1 in 7.2.

Practical details for players are straightforward: pick five numbers between 1 and 35, or opt for Quick Pick; draws are held Monday through Saturday at 10:12 p.m. Central Time, and sales close at 10:02 p.m. Prize tiers are: Match 5 — $25,000 — 1 in 324,632; Match 4 — $350 — 1 in 2,164; Match 3 — $15 — 1 in 75; Match 2 — Free Quick Pick Ticket — 1 in 8.

A set of recent draw results provides additional context, though the official announcement did not tie the Del Rio ticket to a specific date. Recent winning draws and top-prize listings include: Wednesday, Mar 4, 2026, numbers 5 7 23 25 35; Tuesday, Mar 3, 2026, numbers 11 13 19 31 35; Monday, Mar 2, 2026, numbers 1 17 19 26 35; Saturday, Feb 28, 2026, numbers 3 13 25 32 34; Friday, Feb 27, 2026, numbers 2 3 10 18 25; Thursday, Feb 26, 2026, numbers 5 7 14 18 19; Wednesday, Feb 25, 2026, numbers 4 9 13 27 30; Tuesday, Feb 24, 2026, numbers 6 12 24 29 32; Monday, Feb 23, 2026, numbers 8 16 17 24 33; Saturday, Feb 21, 2026, numbers 22 26 30 31 35.

Key local details remain unconfirmed in the announcement: the draw date tied to the Del Rio sale, the retailer name and address in Del Rio, and whether the Del Rio ticket has been claimed. The Texas Lottery announcement supplied the location list but did not provide claimant identities or retail points of sale; those items are necessary to establish whether the Del Rio store will receive any retail bonus and whether the winning ticket has been validated.

For Val Verde County, the headline is clear and immediate: Del Rio is named among three cities with a Cash Five top-prize ticket, and the prize level involved is $25,000 per winning play. Confirmation from the Texas Lottery on the draw date, retailer in Del Rio, and claim status will determine the next steps for prize payment and any local economic effects tied to the retail sale.
