Two Mega Millions tickets matching all five numbers and the mega ball number in Tuesday night’s $355 million drawing were sold in Idaho and Washington state, lottery officials confirmed this morning.
The numbers drawn in the fourth largest jackpot in U.S. history were: 4, 8, 15, 25, 47 and mega ball number 42.
“Idaho is a very lucky place,” said Idaho Lottery Director Jeff Anderson in a press release. “We are encouraging everyone who has played Mega Millions to check their tickets carefully for winners. We are also recommending all our players sign the back of their ticket prior to presenting it for payment. These tickets are bearer instruments and we want to ensure our winners protect their play.”
The other winner in Washington state will be splitting the $355 million jackpot (about $177.5 million each) according to lottery officials.
