It was the day after the July 22 Mega Millions drawing, and Kevin Young was online checking the winning numbers. If the Bristow man had looked carefully, he would have seen he’d matched all six numbers, but that didn’t immediately happen.
“I went right past it,” he said. “I saw it and didn’t recognize it. I thought, ‘Didn’t win again.’”
Fortunately, he went back and rechecked. That’s when the retired engineer realized all six of the numbers on his ticket matched.
“Things changed right then!” he laughed.
This ticket was one of two nationwide to match all six numbers in that drawing, so those two tickets split the $15 million jackpot. The other ticket was bought in Georgia. The winning numbers were 8-24-25-26-30, and the Mega Ball number was 7.
