Bad news… you didn’t win the Mega Millions jackpot Tuesday night. Good news… nobody did!
This is why you should be really excited today that you didn’t win last night. Because now the updated Mega Millions jackpot has skyrocketed up to $1.02 billion. Yes. Billion with a B. It could get even higher by the time they draw it on Friday night which could make it the third largest jackpot in lottery history.
There hasn’t been a Mega Millions jackpot winner in months, since April 15th .
Now, while your odds are very low, about 1 in 302 million, someone has to win right?!
Good luck. Choose those numbers wisely.

With everyone talking about the historic Mega Millions jackpot (now at $1.02 billion for Friday btw) seems like a good time to look back and see just where the lotto started.
For thousands of year people have experimented with raffles, prizes and all kinds of games or contests, but the first documented official lottery was created and run by Queen Elizabeth I in 1566. The game took 3 years to pull a winner and was drawn in 1569.
They sold 400,000 tickets which at the time cost £0.50 each. That was about three weeks of pay for ordinary people back then. The grand prize winner got £5,000.
I’m sure those people would faint if they found out how much our lotto prizes are now.
