The Mega Millions lottery is one of the biggest lotteries in America. The jackpot has now reached $1 billion. A resident of the state of Michigan won the $1 billion Mega Millions lottery this weekend.
The winning numbers were:
4 26 42 50 60 24
The lucky winner bought his or her winning Mega Millions lottery ticket at the Kroger supermarket in the town of Novi, Michigan. The jackpot had not been hit 37 times in a row since someone hit it with $120 million in September last year. As a result, the total prize passed the $1 billion mark just before the weekend.
Biggest jackpot?
It is the third-largest lotto jackpot since 2016. The record Powerball jackpot of $1.586 billion visited three individuals from Tennessee, Florida and California who each had the winning figures in 2016. The biggest single jackpot champion hit the Mega Millions figures for $1.537 billion at the end of 2018.
