Sadly, no New Yorker won Tuesday's Mega Millions jackpot, but someone in South Carolina has about a billion reasons to celebrate. A ticket with the winning numbers of 5, 28, 62, 65, 70 and the Mega number was 5 was sold in South Carolina.

Tuesday's Mega Millions jackpot of $1.6 billion was the largest in history. While no one from New York won the jackpot, four second-prize $1 million winners were sold in the Empire State, including one in the Hudson Valley.

The $1 million winner was sold at Stew Leonard's in Yonkers, according to the New York State Lotto. Second-prize winners hit on all five numbers but not the Mega Ball.
