If you bought your tickets for Wednesday night’s Powerball drawing in the small west Georgia town of Tallapoosa, checking the results should be at the top of your “to do” list.
That’s because one ticket sold in the Haralson County town of 3,000 matched all six numbers, and is worth an estimated $77 million, Georgia Lottery Corp. officials said early Thursday. $370 million mega millions,
The numbers drawn Wednesday night were 24, 30, 45, 57 and 59, and the Power Ball was 26.
The jackpot-winning ticket was sold at the Pilot Travel Center on Ga. 100 at I-20. The truck stop is just inside Georgia, about five miles from the Alabama state line. $370 million mega millions,
The winner, who has not yet come forward, selected the winning numbers with the "Quik Pik" option.
Lottery officials said that if that player chooses the cash option, the prize will be $40.8 million before taxes.
If you didn’t match all six numbers, you still have a chance at a mega-jackpot in Friday night’s Mega Millions lottery. That jackpot is currently $105 million.
