A Pennsylvania resident came close to matching all six Mega Million jackpot numbers for a chance to win the $1.2 billion prize,Fastexy but ultimately won $5 million instead, according to the Pennsylvania Lottery.
The Mega Millions jackpot now sits at $1.05 billion ($527.9 million cash) ahead of Tuesday’s drawing after no winner Friday. However, other big winners came close to the grand prize.
A ticket that matched five out of six numbers was purchased at Thorndale Inn in Downingtown. The individual matched all five white balls drawn, 5-10-28-52-63, but not the yellow Mega Ball 18.
The ticket, purchased by an unknown person, was estimated to be worth $5 million as they opted for the Megaplier. Without the Megaplier, the winner would've only received $1 million.
Thorndale Inn earned a $10,000 bonus for selling the $5 million-winning Mega Millions with Megaplier ticket.
The Pennsylvania Lottery has reported that a lucky winner purchased a $1 million-winning Mega Millions ticket from Nittany MinitMart located in McKean County.
The $1 million-winning Mega Millions ticket matched all five white balls drawn to win $1 million. Nittany MiniMart earned a $5,000 bonus.

The Megaplier is an extra option that allows players to increase the value of any non-jackpot prize winnings by 2x, 3x, 4x, or 5x for an additional $1 per play. If a player purchases the Megaplier feature and wins a non-jackpot prize on a Mega Millions play, the prize amount will be multiplied by the Megaplier number drawn. Recently, a player in Pennsylvania won a $5 million second-tier prize with the Megaplier feature, which is the first-ever $5 million prize at the $1 billion jackpot run level.
Winners of the Mega Millions lottery are confirmed only after their tickets are validated and the prizes are claimed. Winners have a one-year window from the drawing date to claim their prizes, Mega Millions guidelines state. If you've purchased a winning ticket from a lottery retailer, it's recommended that you sign the back immediately.
