The last Michigan player to win a Mega Millions or Powerball jackpot was Cristy Davis of Waterford, who won $ 70 million playing Powerball in February. With her earnings, Davis said she planned to buy a new house and car.
And while she was a lucky winner, it’s smart for players to review their tickets right away, as a $ 1 million winner sold in Hartland last year was not claimed. The ticket was purchased at Speedway in Hartland, but the winner never showed up to claim the prize. Instead, the money went to the state School Aid Fund.
