The winners of the $842 million New Year’s Day Powerball jackpot are a group known as the “Breakfast Club,” officials revealed on Tuesday.

The club opted for the $305 million cash lump sum of the massive win, Michigan Lottery Commissioner Suzanna Shkreli said at the live press conference from Grand Blanc.

The ticket was purchased at the local Food Castle, which also accepted a $50,000 bonus check for selling the winning ticket.
