PORTAGE, Mich. — One lucky Mega Millions player is waking up a multi-millionaire—and if you recently bought a lottery ticket in Portage, you should double-check it soon.
The Michigan Lottery said the ticket matched the five white balls—01-08-11-12-57—and had a 3X multiplier on it, bringing the win up to $3 million.
The ticket was bought at JJ Land LLC on West Centre Avenue in Portage.
Michigan Lottery officials are now looking for the lucky winner.
“The Mega Millions jackpot run brought excitement to Michiganders everywhere, especially the lucky player who won $3 million in Friday night’s drawing,” said Lottery Commissioner Suzanna Shkreli. “In all, players in Michigan won nearly $14 million in prizes during the jackpot run.”
The player should contact the Lottery’s Player Relations division at 844-917-6325 to claim the prize. Winnings must be claimed within a year of the drawing.
Each Mega Millions play is only $5 and includes a multiplier that can multiply prizes up to 10 times.
