Mega Millions jackpot climbs to $900 million ahead of Tuesday’s drawing
LEXINGTON, KY. (ABC36 NEWS NOW) – The Mega Millions jackpot is climbing toward a jaw-dropping milestone — nearly $1 billion — after no tickets matched all six numbers in Friday night’s drawing.
That means the $900 million prize remains unclaimed and will roll over to the next drawing on Tuesday, making it the eighth-largest jackpot in Mega Millions history.
The last winning jackpot ticket was sold back on June 27th, meaning the prize has been growing for months.
Players can buy tickets at participating retailers until just before Tuesday’s drawing — but remember, the odds of winning the grand prize are about 1 in 302 million.
