Someone in Georgia just became a whole lot richer after picking up a Mega Millions ticket at their local grocery store. The ticket matched every single number in the November 14 drawing and won the $980 million jackpot. The numbers that came up were 1, 8, 11, 12, and 57, plus the Mega Ball number 7.
According to NBC News, the winning ticket came from a Publix supermarket on North Highway 29 in Newnan, which is roughly 40 miles away from Atlanta. The store is getting a nice bonus too, with $50,000 coming their way for selling the lucky ticket. Georgia Lottery President and CEO Gretchen Corbin talked about how thrilled everyone was about this massive win.
