While no one on the Mega Millions jackpot on Friday, one lucky ticket sold in New York matched all five white balls which is worth a $1 million dollar prize.
The even better news is that the winning ticket also had the megaplier on it which was 4x, which means that winning is worth $4 million dollars!
The winning numbers from Friday's Mega Millions drawing were:
8-25-36-39-67 with the Mega Ball number 11.
That lucky ticket in New York matched all five of the first numbers taking home the 2nd prize jackpot of $1 million dollars plus the 4x megaplier.
This is not the first time someone in New York won the million-dollar Mega Millions 2nd place prize. January 13th's Mega Million drawing had four million-dollar winners here in New York State.
This is just one of several "Big Money" million-dollar jackpot-winning tickets sold in New York so far in 2023. In February the New York State Lottery announced that 7 "Big Money" million-dollar or more tickets were claimed.
