A Mega Millions ticket purchased in North Dakota for the draw last night, March 30, 2021, matched all five white balls, making it worth $1 million and because the Lottery player had added the Megaplier feature for one dollar more, the prize tripled, making the winning ticket worth $3 million. The winning numbers were 11, 37, 47, 53, 56 and the Mega Ball was 15. The Megaplier multiplier was 3.
The lucky ticket was sold at Casey’s General Store, 3545 25th Street South, in Fargo. The Casey’s General Store location will receive a $5,000 bonus for selling the winning Mega Millions ticket and an additional $5,000 because the ticket included the Megaplier feature, for a total of $10,000. No one has contacted the Lottery office to claim the prize.
This ties the record for the largest prize won in North Dakota Lottery history. The previous record prize was a $3 million Mega Millions with Megaplier ticket purchased in Williston for the May 17, 2016 draw.
“We are extremely excited to have another big winner in North Dakota. In just over two months we’ve had a $1 million winner, a $25,000 a year for life winner and now this $3 million winner in North Dakota. If you have the winning ticket, the first thing you should do is sign the back of the ticket,” said Randy Miller, director of the North Dakota Lottery.
Winners have 180 days from the date of the drawing to claim their prize. Prizes over $599 must be claimed at the North Dakota Lottery office in Bismarck, but because the Lottery office is currently closed to the public, the winner(s) will need to contact the ND Lottery by telephone first, to receive special instructions and make arrangements to claim their prize. The ND Lottery can be reached at 701-328-1574.
The Mega Millions jackpot for the Friday, April 2 draw is $168 million.
