The jackpot was the largest Mega Millions jackpot ever.
The winning ticket was a quick pick and sold at the Publix supermarket on Atlantic Boulevard in Neptune Beach, Florida. The final jackpot was higher than advertised due to higher than expected sales. The winner could also choice the cash option of $794.2 million.
One ticket sold in Florida matched all six balls in Tuesday night's drawing to win the $1.602 billion jackpot, according to the Mega Millions website. The historic Mega Millions jackpot has been won.
