MONTVALE, NJ — A lucky Mega Millions player in Bergen County is celebrating a massive win! A ticket purchased at the 7-Eleven on Kinderkamack Road in Montvale matched all five white balls in the June 20, 2025 drawing and included a 4X multiplier, boosting the prize to an impressive $4 million, the New Jersey Lottery has announced.

Mayor Mike Ghassali, “The planets lined up for one lucky winner, hopefully a Montvalean, winning $4 million. Where? Of course in Montvale”

🎉 Three Match 5 Winners Across the U.S.

Three tickets across the country matched all five white balls to win Match 5 prizes:

• Montvale, NJ: $4 million (4x multiplier)

• Dacula, Georgia: $2 million (2x multiplier)

• Washington State: $3 million (3x multiplier)

Previously, all Match 5 wins would have awarded a flat $1 million, but new Mega Millions rules introduced in April now assign random multipliers to each ticket, significantly increasing secondary prize values.

💰 Next Mega Millions Jackpot: $326 Million

While no ticket hit the jackpot in the June 20 drawing, the top prize is rolling over. The next drawing on Tuesday, June 24, will offer a $326 million jackpot with a cash option of $145.7 million.

The last jackpot win occurred on April 18, when a lucky player in Ohio took home $112 million.
