Million Dollar Lottery Ticket Sold In Humboldt

By John Nixon

(KLZA) A Mega Millions lottery ticket worth one million dollars was sold in Humboldt . In the Friday, August 3rd Mega Millions drawing, a $1, Mega Millions with Megaplier winning ticket was sold at North Fork Farm Service in Humboldt.
    The winning Mega Millions numbers for the August 3rd drawing were: white ball numbers 2, 10, 13, 38, 46; Mega Ball® number 2. The winning ticket sold in Humboldt matched all five of the winning white ball numbers for the $250,000 prize.
    Because the ticket was purchased with the $1 Megaplier option, this $250,000 prize was multiplied by the guaranteed 4X Megaplier number for a total of $1 million. This is the second $1 million Mega Millions prize won in Nebraska since the Nebraska Lottery began offering the game on March 20, 2010.
    The odds of winning $250,000 playing Mega Millions are 1 in 3,904,701. Adding the $1 Megaplier option, which does not affect the odds of winning, gives players a chance at multiplying their non-jackpot prizes two, three, or four times. The overall odds of winning any Mega Millions prize are 1 in 40.
