No one won this past weekend’s Mega Millions lottery drawing meaning that tonight’s all new totals have shot up. Check the report below to see just how high they are before you buy your tickets for tonight’s game.
The new Mega Million lottery totals have reached a whopping $62 million, with a cash value of $36 million.
The official Mega Millions website reports on the winner of the massive $180 million drawing:
“SACRAMENTO--There was some very “weird stuff going on” the day before and the day of the August 22 Mega Millions draw--and nobody is more superstitious than 53-year-old Rick Knudsen.
“The now retired RWC Building Products Branch Manager from Calimesa said he knew then it was time to buy a ticket for the $180 million jackpot, even though he only plays the lottery maybe five times a year. ‘I don’t play unless I feel lucky, and the jackpot is high. I felt lucky,’ Knudsen recalled. That might be an understatement.
“This is a truly unbelievable story of some very strange coincidences related to purchases Knudsen made leading up to--and even after--his decision to buy five Mega Millions Quick Picks. The premonition Knudsen had that he just might win a fortune began the day before the draw at a convenience store.”
The website is also reporting on a recent $1 million winner:
“August 11, 2014 - Patricia Oliveira of New Bedford, Mass., is the winner of a $1 million prize in the multi-state Mega Millions drawing held Friday, August 8, 2014.
“Oliveira claimed her $1 million prize (less taxes) on Monday, August 11 at Massachusetts Lottery headquarters in Braintree. She intends to use her winnings to support charitable causes, help her family and invest.
“The winning ticket was purchased at Quick Pic Mini Mart, 452 Cottage Street in New Bedford. The store will receive a $10,000 bonus on the sale.”
