A ticket with all six numbers in Tuesday evening’s multi-state Mega Millions draw was sold in Minnesota and the ticket holder will have the choice between receiving the $106 million jackpot in 30 graduated payments over 29 years or a lump sum payment of $64.5 million.
The numbers drawn Tuesday were 2, 8, 14, 20, 31 and the Mega number was 17.
The drawing was the 10th since the last time a ticket with all six numbers was sold.
There were four tickets sold with five numbers, but missing the Mega number, two in New Jersey and one each in Florida and Maryland, the Multi-State Lottery Association, which conducts the game, announced.
One of the tickets with five numbers, but missing the Mega number, sold in New Jersey is worth $2 million because the player utilized the Megaplier option, where for an additional $1 any non-jackpot prize will be multiplied by the Megaplier number drawn.
The other three tickets with five numbers, but missing the Mega number, are each worth $1 million.
The odds of matching all five numbers and the Mega number is 1 in 302,575,350, according to the Multi-State Lottery Association. The overall chance of winning a prize is 1 in 24.
The Mega Millions game is played in 45 states, the District of Columbia and U.S. Virgin Islands.
The jackpot for Friday’s drawing will be $20 million.
