Lottery Winner Claims Mega Millions Jackpot
The lucky iLottery winner of the $552 million Mega Millions jackpot has come forward to claim their epic prize. The winner, nicknamed 'MEGA Millionaire,' snagged the jackpot after playing the game online – making this the largest jackpot won through iLottery in history! 'I was scrolling through my emails when I saw one from the Lottery saying to check my numbers because I won a prize,' shared MEGA Millionaire, who has requested to remain anonymous. 'In the past, I’ve won $2 here or $5 there, so I assumed it would be similar.' The lucky winner continued, 'You can’t imagine my shock and disbelief when I saw that I had won the jackpot amount of $552 million. I actually quit the app and then signed back in to double check and make sure it was real. It was real alright – but it still feels unreal!' The MEGA Millionaire matched all five numbers and the Mega Ball, 19-37-40-63-69-17, to win the jackpot in the June 4, 2024 Mega Millions drawing. 'I was raised by a single mom and throughout my childhood, she had to work two jobs to provide for our family, to put food on the table, and for us to get an education,' expressed the grateful winner. 'The day after I graduated from high school, I started working and I haven’t stopped since.' The winner added, 'I am a hard worker. I’ve spent my life as a laborer and once I was making a decent living, I asked my mom to retire and let me take care of her. It was my way of thanking her for how much she sacrificed for us. I haven’t told her yet about this life-changing windfall but when that time comes, we’re all going to be shedding some happy tears.' Tuesday night’s historic online win was the ninth-largest Mega Millions jackpot prize in the game’s history and the second largest prize ever won through this lottery. 'I’ve always dreamed of retiring early and enjoying life with my family. I think it’s safe to say my dream just came true,' exclaimed the newly-minted millionaire. The state lottery was also a big winner. During the Mega Millions jackpot roll that started on March 26, nearly $28 million in total ticket sales generated $11 million for the Common School Fund to support K-12 education. The Lottery, founded in 1974, has contributed over $24 billion to the State’s Common School Fund in support of K-12 public education since 1985. The Common School Fund is the Lottery’s primary benefactor, receiving nearly 99% of Lottery proceeds. The Lottery also supports various specialty causes as described in the Lottery Law.
