That IS a LOT on money folks….
A LOT…..
With no Mega Millions jackpot winners since April, the lottery’s grand prize continues to grow, now climbing over $1.2 billion after Tuesday’s drawing and inching closer to more all-time records.
Ahead of the next drawing on Friday, the Mega Millions jackpot sits at an estimated $1.25 billion with a $625.3 million cash option, the fourth-largest prize in the lottery’s history.
The jackpot has been on the rise since the spring, when a $20 million prize was won in Syracuse, New York on April 18. Five other Mega Millions jackpots have been won this year, including a $1.348 billion haul in January, which was the second largest prize in the lottery game’s history….

Your next chance at the jackpot will be during Friday night’s drawing (Aug. 4), which takes place at 11 p.m. ET…..
