The drawing produced 346,939 winning tickets across the US, including eight tickets that won $50,000 prizes and two tickets that won $150,000 prizes.

Harish Patel, the store clerk who sold that winning ticket, said the winner was a “nice man” who came to his shop every day to spend almost $60 on lottery tickets.
