$125 Million Jackpot
$125 Million Jackpot
The Mega Millions lottery jackpot from the past several weeks had been building beautifully. Then, in a span of about thirty seconds, a person from New Jersey swept in and whisked away millions of people's dreams.

The Mega Millions jackpot had risen to $125 million for the draw on Tuesday evening. It has been an elusive prize, the grand one for the lottery game. Finally, however, there was someone who could lay their claim to the top prize.

Newark's A&J Seabra Supermarkets in Essex County was the lucky location in which the ticket was bought. The store will receive a consolation prize of a $10,000 bonus for selling the ticket.

The winner must now make the decision on whether to take an annual installment of the winnings or a lump some. If they take the lump sum they will receive around $56 million. If they chose the installments, they will get $4.8 million for twenty six years.

The winning numbers for the drawing from Tuesday were 2-16-23-29-32. The Mega Ball number was 46. The jackpot will now reset and will be worth $12 million for Friday's drawing.
