The grand prize winning ticket in the United States amounted to 1.35 billion dollars, and was sold in Lebanon in the American rural town of Maine.
It is a single ticket, and the second largest jackpot in US history. The ticket price is $2 and its numbers match all six winning numbers.
The owner of the ticket has not yet been determined, and he has two options: either pay immediately, and then the prize will be reduced to $ 723.5 million due to taxes, or divide the amount over 30 years and pay it in the form of annual compensation.
The owner of the “Home Town Gas and Grill” store said: “This is a small rural town. We do not know yet who is the winner, but we are waiting impatiently to know if it is one of our friends.”
