MegaMillions Winner Comes Forward!

The lucky lotto winner of the MegaMillions lottery game has come forward to claim his prize of more than $220,000.

The ticket was purchased a month ago and the California Lottery issued a press release this past Monday, September 28th, urging the winner to come forward. The authorities from the California Lottery later realized that the person mailed in a claim over the weekend.

The lucky lotto winner is from East Palo Alto in California, but there was another person who hit the MegaMillions matching five numbers.

Authorities from the California Lottery commented:”We have 21,000 retailers statewide. For two to be hit on the same draw within a mile of each other — that’s definitely strange.”
