NY couple claims and splits a $96 million jackpot
A lucky couple from Blossvale, NY claimed the $96 million Mega Millions jackpot held on Feb. 16. As a reminder, the winning numbers from that date were 1 – 26 – 44 – 54 – 66 with a gold Mega Ball of 10. Their lucky ticket matched all numbers from the drawing, winning them the big jackpot.
Leonard and Lorraine Padavan opted to split the jackpot evenly, which after taxes and withholdings amounted to a single lump sum payment each of just over $23 million. Ultimately, the plan is to pool together the money to purchase an RV and live out the American dream.
