We often joke that nobody from Montana ever hits the lottery. That's not entirely true. That little state game called Montana Cash? Somebody from Monarch just won a huge jackpot of nearly one million dollars.

It's no record breaking Power Ball jackpot, but I don't think you'd be mad to find out you won $959,189 from your $1 lottery ticket. So what's the story?

Every Monday, the Montana Lottery website issues a list of high tier winners across the state. It includes where the winner is from, where they bought their winning ticket and what lottery game they were playing. (If you win a prize more than $600 with the Montana Lottery, that is considered a high tier winner.)

In August, there was another pretty big winner from the Montana Lottery. A cool half million bucks? That will pay a few bills. Great Falls, by the way, seems to be a hotbed of the high tier Montana winners.
