Lottery officials and a crew of convenience store workers are keeping their eyes peeled for the person holding a Mega Millions ticket worth $133 million. "No one has come to make a claim yet," said Patel Dilip, 35, who works at the Shiz Convenience Store on Hillside Ave. "As far as I know it was a woman and she is really lucky." There was only one ticket that matched all six numbers in Tuesday's drawing, officials said.The winning numbers were 25, 27, 35, 38, 39 and the Mega ball was 28. Friday's jackpot reverts to a mere $12 million. Dilip, an immigrant from India, said lottery officials notified him early Wednesday that the store had sold the winning ticket. Officials said the winner allowed the computer to pick the numbers. The player selected the lump sum option instead of getting 26 annual payments. There were also three second prize tickets sold in Monroe, Suffolk and Dutchess counties. Those tickets matched five numbers and are worth $250,000 each.
