EDINA, Minn. — One lucky player may or may not already know they're sitting on a $2 million Mega Millions lottery ticket.
According to the Minnesota Lottery, the ticket was sold at a Holiday Stationstore in Edina for the Sept. 27 drawing. The organization said the ticket matched the first five winning numbers — worth $1 million.
But the fun didn't stop there - because the player added the Megaplier option, the winnings were multiplied by the Megaplier number drawn (2), doubling their earnings.
The winner has one year from the drawing date to claim their prize at lottery headquarters in Roseville. Unless they choose to be named publicly, Minnesota law states anyone who wins more than $10,000 has the option to remain anonymous.
The next drawing takes place Tuesday, Oct. 1. The jackpot is estimated to be worth $93 million.
