The Mega Millions jackpot has skyrocketed to an estimated $900 million, making it the eighth-largest prize in the game’s history! No one hit the jackpot in Friday’s drawing, so the prize pot keeps climbing higher.
🎯 Friday’s Winning Numbers: 16, 21, 23, 48, 70, and the gold Mega Ball 5.
The next drawing is set for Tuesday night, giving players another shot at life-changing money. The jackpot comes with an estimated cash value of $415.3 million — not too shabby for a lucky ticket!
The last time someone struck Mega Millions gold was on June 27 in Virginia, when the winner snagged $348 million. Earlier this year, lucky players scored big in Ohio ($112M in April), Illinois ($349M in March), and Arizona ($112M in January).
In Mega Millions history, the biggest jackpot ever was a mind-blowing $1.6 billion, won on August 8, 2023. That one set records across the country!
For perspective, the odds of winning the jackpot are 1 in 290,472,336 — but that doesn’t stop hopefuls from dreaming big. The game is played across 45 states, Washington D.C., and the U.S. Virgin Islands, and tickets cost just $5 per play.
