3/2/2026, 7:52:16 AM

Winning Ticket Details

A single ticket purchased at a Circle K convenience store in Upland, San Bernardino County, has won a $32 million jackpot in the SuperLotto Plus drawing held on Saturday night. This marks the first time in 26 drawings that a ticket has matched all six numbers. The winning numbers were 8, 11, 22, 37, 46, and the Mega number was 24. The winner has 180 days from the draw date to claim their prize.

Retailer Bonus and Odds

The Circle K store at 681 E Foothill Blvd, which sold the winning ticket, will receive a retailer bonus of 0.5% of the jackpot, amounting to approximately $160,000. The odds of winning by matching all six numbers, including the Mega number, are 1 in 41,416,353, according to the California Lottery.

Previous Lottery Records

While the $32 million prize is significant, it falls short of the largest SuperLotto Plus jackpot ever recorded, which was $193 million in 2002. More recently, in October 2023, a player named M. Shadoian won an $82 million jackpot, the largest in over a decade, with a ticket purchased at Spring Valley Market in Victorville, San Bernardino County. The current jackpot is also the largest since a $50 million ticket was sold on October 11, 2025, at Village Spirit Shoppe in Westlake Village, LA County, which has gained a reputation as the luckiest store in California for selling three multimillion-dollar lottery tickets in less than a decade.

Criticism & Opposition

Despite the excitement surrounding the jackpot, some critics argue that lottery systems disproportionately affect lower-income communities, where residents may spend a larger percentage of their income on lottery tickets in hopes of a life-changing win.

Official Statements & Responses

The California Lottery has expressed enthusiasm about the recent win, highlighting the excitement it brings to the community. They noted, “Every ticket sold contributes to public education in California, making each win a community win.”

What's Next

The winner of the $32 million jackpot is encouraged to come forward within the 180-day claim period. The California Lottery will continue to monitor ticket sales and community engagement as they prepare for future drawings.
