The jackpot has been claimed by a group of eight workers from a meat processing plant.
They all work at a ConAgra ham processing plant near a U Stop convenience store where they bought the winning ticket.
Three of the workers actually went to work Tuesday night and got off at 6:30 a.m. before the 10:30 a.m. jackpot news conference.
The eight workers' names: Quang Dao, 56; David Gehle, 53; Alain Maboussou, 26; Chasity Rutjens, 29; Robert Stewart, 30; Michael Terpstra, 47; Dung Tran, 34; and Eric Zornes, 40.
The winning ticket for the biggest jackpot on record for any lottery in the United States was sold in Lincoln.
The winners chose a lump sum cash option, giving them more than $177 million collectively, or $15.5 million each after taxes.
I KNEW I SHOULD HAVE TAKEN THAT JOB AT THE MEAT PACKING PLANT IN NEBRASKA!! ;)
