You couldn't win it in Mn. and run to South Dakota to avoid taxes. Taxes are paid to the state where you purchased it. Uncle Sam is smarter than letting you do something like that.

The Illinois Lottery allows winners to request anonymity if the prize is greater than $250,000, which certainly applies in this case. You may request to keep your name and municipality of residence confidential at the time of claiming your prize.
