The winning numbers for Tuesday’s world-record $1.6 billion Mega Millions jackpot have been drawn: 5, 28, 62, 65, 70 and Mega Ball 5.
Now we wait to find out if the jackpot will roll for the 26th consecutive time, which would likely result in an astonishing $2 billion prize for Friday night’s drawing.
While supplying that figure, lottery officials pointed out the likelihood of a winner emerging from Tuesday’s drawing, forecasting that about 75 percent of the 302.5 million number combinations would be purchased by aspiring billionaires from coast to coast.

Winner does not have to disclose his name :good:
The SC Education Lottery's Chief Operating Officer Tony Cooper had this advice for the big winner:
“We want you to take a deep breath, and before you come forward to claim the prize, sign the back of the ticket, secure the ticket in a safe location and seek council from a trusted financial planner, CPA, or lawyer."
South Carolina does not require jackpot winners to publicly announce their winnings.
The winner must also decide whether to
take the lump-sum cash option of approximately $878 million or the annuity, the full $1.5 billion jackpot amount paid out in yearly payments over 29 years
Didn't win the jackpot? No need to be discouraged, there were five $10k winning tickets sold in SC, 131 $500 winning tickets and 322 $200 winning tickets.
Winners have 180 days to collect lottery winnings.
Mega Millions tickets are sold in 44 states across the U.S.
Officials said the KC Mart will receive $50,000 for selling the winning ticket.
KC Mart owner CJ Patel said he started "shaking" when he received the call from the lottery office around 5 a.m. Wednesday.
Friday's drawing will now be reset to $40 million.
