$30K Mega Millions Ticket Claimed By Prince George's Man

PRINCE GEORGE'S COUNTY, MD — A Hyattsville man netted $30,000 in a recent Mega Millions drawing by adding the megaplier option to his ticket. The man bought his $15 ticket at the Gas King in Prince George's County, using his own set of lucky numbers.

The 72-year-old matched four white balls and the mega ball to win a $10,000 third-tier prize. Because he added the megaplier option, the Prince George’s County man saw his prize triple to $30,000 because the megaplier came up as x3.

This lucky ticket was the largest winner sold in 2021 by Gas King, which is located at 2025 University Boulevard East in Hyattsville. The business also sold a $5,000 winning scratch-off earlier this year plus, in 2020, a $14,955 winning Racetrax ticket and $5,000 winning Pick 4 ticket.
