A Dallas resident was this close to winning the full Mega Millions prize during a drawing on July 5.
Thomas Solis, who lives in Dallas, won a second-tier Mega Millions Prize—only missing the jackpot by one number, according to Texas Lottery officials.
We don’t feel too bad, however. Solis is coming home with almost $1 million after matching all five of the white ball numbers (29-46-53-64-73), and only missing the Mega Ball number (10).
