Who won the jackpot?
No one won the jackpot in the end, as it went unclaimed. The jackpot was the result of a lottery draw that had been running for several months and the top prize had been increasing each week until eventually reaching a huge amount of money.
The draw was closed off to new entries and the winner would have had to have their ticket in the exact draw to have won the jackpot. Unfortunately, as no one submitted the correct ticket, the jackpot ended up going unclaimed.

What happens if no one claims the Mega Millions?
If no one claims the Mega Millions, the jackpot amount rolls over to the next drawing. This will continue to happen until someone wins the jackpot. Unclaimed jackpot amounts eventually are redistributed among the other lottery prizes.
Powerball and Mega Millions also have a “Must Be Won” lottery game. If the jackpot has been rolling over for a certain amount of time without being won, the game will “Must be Won” and the jackpot will be split among winners of the second tier prize.
This ensures that the jackpot does not –and cannot–roll in perpetuity. All prizes for both Powerball and Mega Millions must be claimed within 180 days of the drawing date.
