American Falls Trucker Claims Mega Millions Prize

A trucker from southeastern Idaho has claimed a $250,000 Mega Millions prize, but he hasn’t quit his day job just yet.

Joseph Graham’s winning ticket matched the first five numbers of the March 23 national lottery drawing – all but the Mega Ball. But Graham says he waited so long to cash in his winning ticket because he needed a day off of work..

The American Falls resident got a break from his job last Thursday and made the trek to the Idaho Lottery headquarters in Boise.

The hometown gas station that sold Graham the ticket will receive a $20,000 bonus from the Idaho Lottery.

Winners of the record $656 million Mega Millions jackpot from March 30 have started coming forward amid weeks of intense national speculation.
