The ninth largest jackpot in Mega Millions® history is on tap for the next drawing on Friday, October 24! The big prize jumps to an estimated at $680 million ($318.2 million cash) after no ticket matched all six numbers drawn Tuesday night – the white balls 2, 18, 27, 34 and 59, plus the gold Mega Ball 18. The jackpot was last won at $348 million in Virginia on June 27.
In the October 21 drawing, there were 436,959 winning tickets across all prize tiers, for total winnings of almost $12 million across the country. One ticket, sold in Illinois, matched the five white balls to win the second-tier prize; with the 3X multiplier, it is worth $3 million. Eleven tickets matched four white balls plus the Mega Ball to win the game’s third-tier prize: five at 2X for $20,000 (two in Florida and one each in California, Colorado and Massachusetts), five at 3X for $30,000 (Arizona, California, Iowa, Louisiana and Ohio), and one at 10X for $100,000 (New Jesey).
