PHOENIX – A lottery ticket worth an estimated $112 million was sold in Arizona after Friday’s national Mega Millions drawing. It is the second-largest Mega Millions jackpot won in the state’s history.
The winning ticket was purchased at the Winners Corner in Tempe near Broadway Road and Roosevelt Street. It matched all five of the white numbers drawn – 8, 10, 37, 54, 69 – plus the gold Mega Ball of 22. The winning ticket sold in Tempe was the only ticket sold across the country that matched all six numbers. The odds of that are 1 in 302.6 million.
The winner will have the option to take the total amount (an annuity paid over 29 years), or a cash payout for $49.95 million…
