$15.1M Lottery Ticket Sold In Village Of Luck Gets Claimed

LUCK, WI — A winning Megabucks ticket worth over $15 million that was sold at a grocery store in Luck, Wisconsin, was claimed on Monday, the Wisconsin Lottery announced Wednesday.

The ticket was sold at Wayne's Food Plus to Mark Cunningham for the Jan. 4 drawing, the lottery said. Cunningham claimed the ticket Monday, saying "dreams really do come true" in the release.

"I actually won $15.1 million and two dollars," Cunningham said jokingly while claiming the ticket, the release said. "I also had a $2 winning ticket for the same drawing."

The prize is the largest for the Megabucks game since 2015, when a $22.2 million prize was claimed, according to Wisconsin Lottery. Besides Cunningham's big winning in the Jan. 4 drawing, over 14,000 people won at least $2, the lottery said.
