$1M Mega Millions Ticket Sold In FL, Jackpot Grows To $720M

FLORIDA — While no one won Tuesday night's $640 million Mega Millions jackpot, a ticket worth $1 million was sold in Hillsborough County, according to Florida lottery officials.

The winning Florida ticket matched Tuesday's five white balls of 16, 22, 31, 37 and 54, making it worth $1 million, according to the Mega Millions website.

The $1 million ticket was sold at a Publix store at 6434 U.S. Highway 41 North in Apollo Beach, TC Palm reported.

Tickets worth $1 million were also sold in Maryland, New York, Ohio and Rhode Island. Two were sold in California.

Another ticket sold in Maryland matched all five white balls and included the optional Megaplier, making it worth $4 million.

Nationwide, 46 tickets matched four white balls plus the Mega Ball to win the third-tier prize of $40,000 each.

Since no one snagged the big prize Tuesday, Friday's jackpot swells to an estimated $720 million with an estimated cash option of $396.3 million. This jackpot is the fifth-largest in the game’s history.

Mega Millions tickets are $2 each. Players can add the Megaplier for an additional $1 to multiply their non-jackpot prizes.

Drawings are held at 11 p.m. ET on Tuesdays and Fridays.
