SACRAMENTO — The winning ticket for Friday night's estimated $1.22 billion Mega Millions jackpot, the fifth-largest in the game's history, was sold in Northern California.
The California Lottery said the lucky ticket was sold at a Circle K store in the Shasta County city of Cottonwood. It was the only ticket nationwide to match all six numbers in the drawing. The winning numbers were 3, 7, 37, 49, 55, and a Mega Ball of 6.
Two other tickets in California — one in the city of Roseville and another in San Bernadino — matched five of the six numbers, the California Lottery added. Those two tickets each earned a prize of $787,543.
The jackpot-winning ticket was the first Mega Millions winner since an $810 million jackpot was won in Texas on September 10 and the third winning ticket of the year.
The lump sum payout for the $1.22 billion drawing was an estimated $549.7 million, a Mega Millions spokesperson told CBS News. The winner can also choose to receive the $1.22 billion annuity paid out over 30 years.
