In a stroke of incredible luck, a New Hampshire lottery player has become the latest Tri-State Megabucks jackpot winner.

The winning ticket, worth an estimated $13.9 million, was sold at Milton Mart, located at 16 Commerce Way in Milton. The draw took place on the evening of March 4, 2024.

The fortunate winner now faces a significant decision: receiving the grand prize in graduated payments spread over 30 years or opting for a one-time, lump sum payout.

Mega Jackpots Await

In addition to the Megabucks victory, New Hampshire residents are currently eyeing an estimated total of $1.13 billion from the combined jackpots of Mega Millions and Powerball.

The Mega Millions jackpot is projected to reach $650 million, while the Powerball jackpot is expected to hit $485 million. Cash payouts for these draws are estimated at $308.6 million for Mega Millions and $232.4 million for Powerball, both before taxes.

Tri-State Megabucks remains a beloved game among our players, and we eagerly anticipate welcoming New Hampshire’s newest multi-millionaire. The excitement doesn’t stop here; with Mega Millions and Powerball jackpots on the line, our players have two fantastic chances to win big.”

The winning numbers for the recent Tri-State Megabucks draw were 2, 10, 23, 28, 32, and MB-1. For those keeping track, the Mega Millions and Powerball had their draws on March 1 and March 4, respectively, with their own sets of winning numbers.

Notably, the last Tri-State Megabucks ticket to hit the jackpot was purchased on February 18, 2023. This victory, coupled with the ongoing large jackpots in Mega Millions and Powerball, underscores the high stakes and excitement surrounding lottery draws in New Hampshire.
