Mega Millions: Maryland, Illinois and Kansas ticket holders won the biggest jackpot in world history
Lottery officials has announced that three ticket holders have got all six numbers in the $640 million Mega Millions lottery draw – putting them in line to receive $154 million each as a lump sum.
Lottery players in Maryland, Illinois and Kansas hold winning tickets, according to lottery organizers.
The winning numbers were 46, 23, 38, 4 and 2, while the Mega ball was 23 in last night’s draw that saw Americans vie for the biggest lottery jackpot in world history as 1.5 billion tickets were sold across the country.
The average American was more likely to be killed in a mass murder than win the jackpot. Fifty three times more likely, in fact. Dying in an avalanche sometime in the next decade is 160 times more likely than winning.
