Two NJ lottery tickets win $4.9 million Pick-6 jackpot at the same store. See where

Two tickets matched all six numbers to win the $4.9 million Pick-6 jackpot on Monday, the New Jersey Lottery announced.

The winning tickets were both sold at the same Morris County location: the Mill Lane Tavern on 8 Mill Lane in Rockaway.

“Congratulations to our latest Pick-6 winners! Pick-6 jackpots are always exciting for us, and it is rare to see two jackpot-winning tickets sold at the same store. This could be one lucky player that decided to double-down on their ticket or two separate players with shared luck at the same store,” said Executive Director James Carey in a release.

The retailer gets two $10,000 bonuses for selling both tickets.

The winning Pick-6 numbers from Monday, May 13 were: 02, 03, 04, 12, 20 and 26.
