It's Friday evening, and at 11:00pm EST, you can find out if you won the Mega Millions!!
Who wants to win tonight's jackpot? $60 million is hard to come by. But for tonight's lucky winner(s), it could just be the difference of a $2 ticket with the Mega Millions winning numbers.
The Mega Millions winning numbers for the previous drawing were 13 (thirteen), 28 (twenty-eight), 35 (thirty-five), 38 (thirty-eight), 41 (forty-one), and 33 (thirty-three, the Mega Millions Number) with the Megaplier as 3.
Those who want to get a chance of winning a Mega Millions jackpot someday can purchase a $2 Mega Millions ticket and choose some of the luckiest numbers you can remember. There are limitations, of course. The first five numbers must be from 1-56, and you cannot repeat any of them.
The sixth number must be a number between 1 and 46, and it's usually referred to as the Mega Ball, though sometimes some people refer to it as the Mega Millions Number, since it's the necessary number for the jackpot. This last integer though, can be the same as the first five integers between 1 and 56.
With a chance of winning any prize with a 1 in 40 chance, it is very possible to come home with a happy heart. However, to win the jackpot itself could be a little difficult (but a lot of the jackpots do get taken!), with the chances of 1 in 172 million.
Though the probability of winning is not that high, millions will be gazing at their computer monitors tonight through their Giga bit ethernet connections for those winning numbers to pop out of the drawing. Really, it's an art as the live stream free link shows the readers what they're really waiting for. It will surprise them if they get the Mega Millions jackpot tonight.
Mega Millions is America's biggest jackpot game, having jackpots with at least $12 million and other prizes starting from $2 to $250,000, according to Mega Millions Official Home. In order to win the Mega Millions, players must match all six numbers. Tonight's jackpot is $60 million.
For contests like these, there are many losers. But, losing is not all that bad. All of the money is put to use in some way. On average, 35% of the money supports your state's government services. 50% of the money goes back to the players in prizes. The last 15% goes to retailer commissions and lottery operating costs.
