It may come as a surprise to many lottery players that a lottery game provides updates surrounding its winners many times a week. Yes, there are lottery games that are played several times a week and they always give out huge prizes to the participants.
However, the players are expected to participate on a regular basis with the aim that someday, they will be able to hit the jackpot. The lottery games are all about luck and fortune, so one needs to keep trying until they end up winning a prize.
There are several players who keep playing lottery games throughout their lives but never end up winning prize money. On the contrary, there are people who participate in lottery games unwilling, but they still end up winning prizes.
Therefore, lottery games are a completely unpredictable thing and one can win millions playing them. Surprisingly, the Mega Millions officials have both scenarios to share today with a couple of players.
The Mega Millions officials have revealed that they have two players who participated in the same Mega Millions draw. As both players participated in the same game, their luck went in their favor and both of them ended up winning the same tiered prize money.
The first player is Stephen Spender, a resident of Port Orchard. Stephen had reportedly purchased his lucky ticket from Safeway #3317. The particular store is located at 3355 Bethel Road Southeast, Port Orchard. Stephen revealed that he had been playing the Mega Millions game for almost half a decade, hoping someday he will be able to win something.
The player revealed that he had once dreamed that he was playing Mega Millions and won a jackpot doing so. This is the reason why he started playing the Mega Millions lottery, hoping to win prize money someday.
Although it is not a coincidence because Stephen had been playing the game for five years. Still, things turned out to be in his favor and his luck worked out, helping him win $10,000.
Then it is Grant Dawson, a resident from Lacey. Grant had purchased the ticket for the Mega Millions game from Safeway Store #1977. The particular Safeway branch is located at 6200 Pacific Avenue Southeast, Lacey. Surprisingly, Grant had participated in the Mega Millions game for the first and last time in his life.
According to Grant, he was confident that nothing was going to come out of it because he never believed in lottery games. Surprisingly, Grant was unaware that he would end up winning huge prize money playing the game.
Both players participated in the November 16, 2021 draw for the Mega Millions game. The numbers drawn were 65-53-44-22-6 and the Megaball was 3, alongside that Megaplier that was 3X. Both players matched the numbers for the tier three prize but Grant had the Megaplier option added to his ticket. This is the reason why Stephen won $10,000, but Grant’s prize money tripled to $30,000.
