THE MEGA MILLIONS LOTTERY (MEGAMILLIONS)
History Of The Mega Millions Lottery:
| Like the other big American lottery, the Powerball, the Mega Millions started life under a different name. Originally the lottery was known as The Big Game when it launched in 1996 with tickets going on sale in a handful of US States, including Georgia, Maryland and Virginia. In the early days of The Big Game draws were only held once a week on Fridays. The Big Game expanded to include many more States and an extra draw day, Tuesday. On May 17th, 2002, the lottery was renamed as Mega Millions. |

How To Play The Mega Millions Lottery:
Like many other lotteries, the Mega Millions lottery makes use of two separate ball sets. Lottery players pick 5 numbers from 1 to 56 (these are known as the ‘white balls) and a further 1 number from 1 to 46 (the gold coloured ‘Mega’ ball). Owing to the fact that the Mega ball is drawn from a separate ball set it is possible that it can be a duplicate of one of the drawn white balls.
To win the jackpot players need to match all 6 drawn lottery numbers.
Mega Millions Rollovers And Historic Jackpots:
Mega Millions holds the record for the largest lottery jackpot in the world, a massive $656 million USD, set in March 2012. Mega Millions is no new arrival to giant jackpots though, with a rich tradition of paying out large sums of money to winners.
- $656 million USD won on March 30, 2012 – the largest jackpot in the world, ever! The historic jackpot was shared by three winning ticket holders
- $390 million USD won on March 6, 2007 – the prize was split between two ticket winners, one from New Jersey and the other from Georgia
- $380 million USD won on January 4, 2011 – the prize was again split between two winning tickets, one from Idaho and the other from Washington
As with the USA Powerball, Mega Millions offers both a cash or an annuity prize option. The annuity provides annual payments over a 26-year period. E.g. For every $1,000,000 in the jackpot, you will receive approximately $38,500 per year before taxes.
Payment of winnings for both USA lotteries is subject to federal and applicable state taxes deducted from them.
When To Play The Mega Millions lottery:
Mega Millions draws take place twice a week on Tuesday and Friday. Drawings are held at 11:00 p.m. Eastern Time at WSB-TV in Atlanta, Georgia, U.S.A. Draw videos can be watched here.
