BALTIMORE, Md. — While no one hit the Mega Millions jackpot in Tuesday night’s drawing, three Maryland players are celebrating $10,000 wins.
The winning third-tier tickets were sold in Baltimore, Fort Washington, and District Heights. The Baltimore City ticket was purchased at Wawa #8511 on Boston Street, while the Prince George’s County tickets were sold at Silesia Convenience on Livingston Road in Fort Washington and Wawa #8537 on Brooks Drive in District Heights.
The winning numbers for the December 17 drawing were 56, 66, 67, 68, 69, and the Mega Ball was 18. The drawing also featured a 4x Megaplier, increasing non-jackpot prizes for players who opted for the feature.
With no jackpot winner, the Mega Millions grand prize has soared to an estimated $825 million for Friday’s drawing, with a cash option of $382.2 million. If won, it would be the largest Mega Millions jackpot ever awarded in December and the seventh largest in the game’s history.
Lottery officials remind all Maryland winners to sign the backs of their tickets and claim prizes within 182 days. Players are encouraged to check their tickets carefully and secure any winnings.
