No one won the Halloween Mega Millions lottery jackpot, meaning that the new totals have risen past the $300 million mark. Check the report below to see just how high the totals are for tonight’s game.
Tonight’s Mega Million jackpot totals have reached a whopping $321 million, with an estimated cash value of $194 mill.
Tonight’s drawing is the eighth largest in Mega Millions history, as the lottery’s official website reports:
“For only the 10th time in Mega Millions’ 12-year history, the jackpot will surpass $300 million for the next drawing on November 4. An estimated $321 million ($194 million cash option) will be up for grabs after no ticket matched all six numbers (11, 29, 36, 58 and 67, plus the Mega Ball of 15) on Halloween night, October 31. The jackpot has been growing since it was last won in California at $180 million on August 22.
“There were five Match 5 winning tickets sold in Friday night’s drawing, one in New York and two each in California and New Jersey.
“The estimated $321 million jackpot would rank 8th on the list of the top ten Mega Millions jackpots.”
The website also tells you just what to do if you win”
“What if you win the jackpot? Annuity option: The Mega Millions annuity is paid out as one immediate payment followed by 29 annual payments. Each payment is 5% bigger than the previous one. We used to pay the jackpot in equal installments, but players expressed concern that the cost of living would be increasing while their payments were not. We changed to payments that increase each year to help protect winners’ lifestyle and purchasing power.”
Check back in with us later tonight to see if you won big. Until than, keep hoping and stop working - Brick Dozer.
