You what day seems like a good day, October 21. Its as good a day as any to win hundreds of millions dollars. The results are in this weekend’s Mega Millions lottery drawing, and no one won. That means that this week’s game totals have risen once again. Check the report below to see just how big, before you buy your tickets.
The new totals for this week’s Mega Millions lottery drawing have reached a whopping, $200 million, with an estimated cash option of $122 million.
Where there was no big money jackpot winner this past Friday, there was two big pick 5 winners, as the Mega Millions lottery website reports:
“There were two Match 5 winners in Friday night’s drawing, one each in California and Wisconsin. It marks the first $1 million Mega Millions prize won in Wisconsin since the game was relaunched last year.
“Since Mega Millions changed exactly one year ago, there have been more than 205 million winning tickets sold for prizes at all levels, from $1 all the way up to the jackpot. In the past year, nine jackpots have been won, ranging from $20 million to a near-record $648 million, with a total of eleven winners (two jackpots were shared). There have been 174 Match 5 second-prize winners, most at the $1 million level; 11 of them won between $2 and $5 million because those tickets included the optional Megaplier purchase for an additional $1.
Be sure to check back in with us this Tuesday night to see if you won $200 million. Until than, keep hoping and stop working. -Brick Dozer.
