The Arizona Lottery conducted its seventh raffle drawing Thursday, awarding more than $3 million in total cash prizes, including one $1 million grand prize.

A special Early Bird drawing on Dec. 1 awarded $5,000 each to 20 lucky players.

The winning numbers for the raffle draw can be found on Lottery Post's Arizona Lottery Results page.

Any ticket that won an Early Bird prize was still eligible to win any of the prizes in the main raffle drawing on Jan. 5.

Only 300,000 tickets were available for purchase. The $20 tickets were sold in sequential order.

In addition to the single $1 million prize and the 20 Early Bird prizes of $5,000, there are six $100,000 prizes, 40 $10,000 prizes, 750 $1,000 prizes, and 350 $500 prizes.

With just 300,000 tickets available, the Millionaire Raffle offers players the best odds ever at winning $1 million.

The overall odds of winning a prize are approximately 1 in 257.07.

Winners must collect their prize from the lottery within 180 days of the drawing.
