ATLANTA, Ga. (Atlanta News First) – A very lucky Mega Millions player in Georgia won $1 million in Friday’s drawing!
The winning numbers were 19, 20, 22, 47, and 58 with a Mega Ball 01. Two others also won $10,000 each.
It wasn’t the nation’s only $1 million win. A player in Texas also won the prize, which is a step below the jackpot.
The estimated jackpot for next Tuesday’s drawing is now an estimated $735 million, with a cash option of $356.7 million. That’s the sixth-largest jackpot in the game’s history, according to the lottery.
The last jackpot win was on Dec. 8 in California. Two tickets, both sold at the same Chevron in Los Angeles, shared the $394 million prize (or $188.6 million in cash).
Mega Millions is played in 45 states, Washington, D.C. and the U.S. Virgin Islands.
