The Mega Million Jackpot has been growing and growing with no one being able to hit the massive jackpot. At the most recent drawing the jackpot had grown to $207 million; so many players were trying their best to hit the jackpot.

In Ohio, a mayor of a small town has confirmed that the winning ticket was from his city. A small group of city employees had played the lottery together and it finally paid off, with their ticket being the only one to match the numbers in the Mega Millions Lottery game.

Twelve people will receive a cut of the money, which is a great deal considering how large the jackpot had grown to. It is amazing still that only one ticket won the lottery. The Mega Millions is played in different states in the US.

It is unclear yet of the exact payout each player will receive. The identities of the winners have also been withheld. But, for those who live in Ohio, I would bet if you pass someone on the street with an unbelievable grin then you might assume they won the massive jackpot.
