LANSING, Mich. (AP) -- While thousands of Michiganians dream of how they'd spend the $333 million Mega Millions jackpot, three of them already have made plans for the $250,000 second prizes they won in the last drawing.
The Michigan Lottery says three of the four second-prize winners in Tuesday's drawing have claimed their prizes. Amy Collier of Albion, Daniel Howells of Coldwater and James Brandon of Southfield told lottery officials they'll use some of their winnings to pay bills, take vacations and cover college costs.
The fourth winner hadn't come forward as of Thursday.
Friday's jackpot will be the second-largest in the multistate lottery's history. It was known as The Big Game when it awarded a $363 million jackpot in 2000.
