3 People in different states won the Mega Millions. They get to split 640 million. Not a bad haul.
One winner bought their ticket from a Moto Mart Gas Station in Red Bud IL. This is a small town in Southwestern IL and about 60 minutes from St. Louis. The town is not a suffering from major poverty, it is a nice clean little town with only one small grocery store. Many people who live in Randolph County IL pass through here daily. So the winner might be a resident of the small town or it might be someone that just lives in the county or someone that was passing through on Route 3 (which is the Mark Twain Trail that goes along the Mississippi River, but Red Bud does not sit close to the river)

I know the area well as I have passed through there many many times. I just wish I was the lucky winner!
