NEW YORK (1010 WINS) - It's going to be a 'Mega' New Year celebration for someone on Long Island.
The one winning ticket from Tuesday night's Mega Millions drawing was sold at "Sonny's Cards' n Things" in Rocky Point.
Lottery Results: New York | New Jersey | Connecticut
The jackpot was an estimated $ 162 million.
The person who bought the ticket chose the 'lump sum' option, meaning they will get their prize money all at once (after taxes, of course), a New York Lottery official said.
The winning numbers were 3 - 33 - 35 - 39 and 45, the "Gold Mega Ball" number was 13
But the lucky person who came up with those numbers did not come up with them has his or her own - - they were "Quick Pick" numbers, chosen randomly by the lottery computer, the official said.
The jackpot climbed to $ 162 million after 11 straight drawings without a winner.
The largest Mega Millions jackpot was $ 390 million in 2007. It was split between two winners, one in New Jersey and one in Georgia.
