Jackpot is a whopping $370 million dollars, 8 second place winners in NYS
Eyewitness News
(New York-WABC, March 7, 2007) - We're still awaiting word on who, if anyone, won the record $370 million jackpot. But the Lottery Commission says the one of the two winning tickets were sold in New Jersey. Find out if you have the winning numbers!
Ohio Lottery spokeswoman Mardele Cohen says the other winning Mega Millions ticket was sold in Georgia.
Eight winning second place Mega Millions tickets were purchased in New York State, according to Susan Miller at New York Lottery. The second place payout is $250,000 each.
The winning numbers: 16-22-29-39-42 and Mega Ball 20
It wasn't immediately known how many tickets were sold nationwide or who, if anyone, held the winning ticket.
New Jersey officials reported on Tuesday that MegaMillions tickets sold in that state at a rate of 700,000 tickets per hour. The jackpot is so huge that Tuesday's drawing was moved from Atlanta to Times Square. New York Lottery diva Yolanda Vega was on hand to draw the winning numbers for the historic prize.
The odds of winning the jackpot are about 1 in 176 million. But there are also secondary prizes, starting from $2 on up. The odds there are about 1 in 40 - which means, of course, you still could parlay your winning back into more tickets in case nobody wins the jackpot Tuesday. The former record-holders for biggest jackpot: in 2002, three winners shared a Mega Millions jackpot of $331 million. Powerball has the record for the largest single winner with $314.9 million won on Christmas Day.
