One player said he bought 10 Mega Million tickets, and although he did not win the $1.37 billion, he was still happy for the person who did.
“You got to be happy for some people when you play. You got to be in it to win it,” said Steven Kelly, player.
The next lottery drawing will be next Tuesday, August 2 at 11 p.m. on Channel 2 Action News.
