Connecticut Player Wins $3,000,000 on Mega Millions® Ticket Sold in Granby for January 10 DrawingJanuary 11, 2023 – While no one hit the Mega Millions jackpot for the Tuesday, Jan. 10, drawing, a CT Lottery player matched the first five numbers drawn and won $3,000,000 – one of three in the country (CT, FL, NY).
