D’IBERVILLE, Miss. (WJTV) – A Mega Millions ticket worth $1 million was sold in Mississippi!

The player matched all five numbers in the Tuesday night drawing. Mississippi Lottery officials said the player was only one number away from winning the estimated jackpot of $257 million by missing the Mega Ball number of 5.

The winning ticket was sold at the Scarlet Pearl Casino and Resort in D’Iberville.

The winning Mega Millions numbers from Tuesday night’s drawing were 10-18-27-37-61 with a Mega Ball of 5 and a Megaplier of 3. Had the player spent the additional $1 on the Megaplier option, they would have tripled their prize to $3 million.
