Winning $4.3 Million Megabucks Ticket Sold in Redgranite
Jackpot win is the largest Wisconsin Lottery prize won in 2024 so far

Win in Redgranite. $4.3 Million

Madison, Wis. -- The Wisconsin only lotto game, Megabucks, had a mega winner on Wednesday night. A $4.3 million jackpot winning ticket was sold at Kwik Trip on 549 W. Bannerman Ave in Redgranite for the July 17 drawing. The winning numbers were 6-8-14-26-33-37.

The jackpot is the largest Wisconsin Lottery prize won in 2024 so far.

Not to be confused with the multi-jurisdictional game Mega Millions, Megabucks is only offered in Wisconsin and is one of the longest-running lotto games in the Badger State. Megabucks offers two plays for $1. The odds of winning the jackpot are 1 in 6,991,908.

Wisconsin Lottery retailers who sell winning tickets over $599 receive a two percent Retailer Performance Winning Ticket Incentive, up to $100,000.

Players have 180 days from the draw date to claim their winnings. Information on how to claim a prize is available at wilottery.com. Players can also check their tickets using the Wisconsin Lottery mobile app, available at the App Store or Google Play.

The Megabucks jackpot was won four times in 2023. The Redgranite Megabucks win marks the second time in 2024 the game's jackpot was hit. In February, a $3.5 million winning ticket was sold in Oak Creek.

Megabucks has drawings on Wednesday and Saturdays. Tickets must be purchased before 9 p.m. on Wednesday and Saturday to be included in that day's drawing.
