At least one Mega Millions player has plenty of dough to ring in the New Year after drawing the winning number. After three months without anyone winning the top prize in the lottery, a ticket worth an estimated $1.

Two Mega Millions tickets sold in California won $787,543 each, lottery officials say. The tickets matched five winning numbers, but not the Mega Ball, in the drawing Friday, Dec. 27, the California Lottery said. The state adjusts prizes based on the number of tickets sold and number of winners.

COTTONWOOD, Calif. – A single ticket sold in Northern California matched all six numbers – white balls 3, 7, 37, 49, 55 and Mega Ball 6 – to win the $1.22 billion jackpot in Friday night’s Mega Millions drawing, according to lottery officials.
