A Mega Millions lottery player in Georgia struck it rich in Tuesday’s drawing.
A Georgia Lottery Corp. spokesperson confirmed a player purchased a $4 million winning ticket at the Fraternal Order of Eagles in St. Marys. The coastal southeast Georgia town is about 340 miles from Atlanta.
The lucky winner’s identity has not been released.
Nobody claimed the big jackpot in Tuesday’s Mega Millions drawing, which will now grow to an estimated $672 million ahead of Friday’s picks.
Tuesday’s winning numbers were 2-4-10-48-56-22.
The Georgia winner matched the first five of those numbers, but not the Mega Ball, and also had a four-times multiplier on their ticket.
Players in Florida and New Jersey also won $2 million and $3 million, respectively, according to the Mega Millions website.
The odds of winning the jackpot are slim: just 1 in 290,472,336, according to the game’s website.
