Mega Millions jackpot jumps to $88 million

The Mega Millions is a hot ticket today. The reason: the jackpot for that lottery game is simmering at $88 million. In last Friday’s draw, no one got all the winning digits right. Those numbers are: 4, 5, 17, 19, 50, and the Mega Ball 7. Once again, some lucky player in California did match five of the winning numbers, but missed the Mega Ball. That […]

Mega Millions jackpot leaps to $52 million

The money is stacking up once again in the Mega Millions lottery game. No one picked all of last Tuesday’s winning numbers: 17, 18, 24, 35, 39, and the Mega Ball 18. That pumped the jackpot up to $52 million. One ticket, bought in California, got all but one of those lucky numbers right. That ticket was missing the correct Mega […]
