“It is the eighth Mega Millions jackpot won this year. The jackpot had been rolling since it was last won in New York on September 11 by a group of five friends from Yonkers, who shared $106 million. New York was home to two other jackpot winners this year, $126 million on February 27 and $58 million on March 24.
