The Mega Millions jackpot has skyrocketed to an estimated $1.1 billion after no one won the $940 million jackpot in Friday night’s drawing. This marks the fourth time in four years that the top prize has exceeded $1 billion.
The only Mega Millions jackpots higher than Tuesday’s $1.1 billion are the record $1.537 billion won in South Carolina in 2018 and the $1.337 billion won in Illinois last year. The $1.1 billion jackpot would rank as the third-biggest in the history of the game.
Friday’s drawing ended with numbers 3, 20, 46, 59, 63 and the gold Mega Ball 13. If someone wins at that amount, it would be the third largest jackpot in Mega Millions history.
The last time someone won the Mega Millions top prize was on October 14th, when the jackpot was $502 million. The next drawing will take place on Tuesday night and will offer the estimated $1.1 billion jackpot.
The Mega Millions lottery is one of the most popular lotteries in the United States, with millions of people playing each week. The odds of winning the jackpot are 1 in 302,575,350. Despite the long odds, many people still hope to win the big prize.
