 Mike Lang says the winning tickets were in Illinois, Kansas and Maryland. The Illinois Lottery says a grand prize ticket was sold at a store in Red Bud, Ill., near St. Louis, according to the Chicago Tribune. The Maryland lottery announced earlier its winner was from Baltimore County. Maryland lottery officials announced early Saturday that their state sold what could become the world's largest lottery payout of all-time, but it wasn't immediately clear if that ticket holder would get sole possession of the $640 million jackpot or have to split it with other winners. Carole Everett, director of communications for the Maryland Lottery, said the winning Mega Millions ticket was purchased at a retailer in Baltimore County. Last night’s winning numbers were 2-4-23-38-46 and Mega Ball 23. The winner bought one ticket with randomly selected numbers just a few hours before sales ended.
– At least three lucky (and still anonymous) souls have winning tickets in the $640 million Mega Millions jackpot, reports AP. The winners were sold in Illinois (in Red Bud, near St. Louis); Maryland (in the Baltimore suburb of Milford Mill, reports the Baltimore Sun); and somewhere in Kansas. California struck out but had lots of close calls, notes the Los Angeles Times: Twenty-nine tickets there matched five of the six numbers, and each should be worth in the "high hundreds of thousands." For the record, the lucky numbers were 2-4-23-38-46, with the Mega Ball of 23.
