So far it's been a very lucky year for one Connecticut resident. One ticket for Tuesday, (January 11) lotto jackpot was sold in Connecticut, and the lucky winner now gets to pocket $2.9 million dollars.
The lucky winning ticket was sold at A1 Quick and Easy on the Boston Post Road in Waterford. The lucky numbers that hit were 4-14-21-22-24-25, and the payout was worth millions.
