Mega Millions / Powerball

The jackpot for Friday's Mega Millions rolled over to $154 million, while the top prize in tonight's Powerball multi-state lottery stands at $222 million.

The numbers drawn in Tuesday night's Mega Millions lottery were 1, 6, 13, 20 and 51, and the Mega Ball was 31.

The Mega Millions jackpot has been growing since a player in Ohio won $41 million on March 12.

The Powerball jackpot has been climbing since March 30, when an Illinois player won $50 million.

If a single player wins tonight's Powerball jackpot and chooses the cash option, he or she would receive a single payout of approximately $144 million before taxes, Georgia Lottery officials said.

Powerball and Mega Millions winning numbers and prize payout information can be seen at USA Mega, a Web site devoted to the United States multi-state lotteries.

i would have to ask u atfer u won both

did u sell your soul to devil or something,

ever seen that movie Bedazzled

hot devil chick grants this guy many wishes for hes souls

but the wishes never work out way he thinks, its pure comedy gold

giving someone both MM/PB and make them public, yup that chaos for sure.................

 

pb only has about 3 rollovers left before its gone for sure,

looking at past draws, we can guest ballpark range where it be.

Wednesday, November 28, 2012 05 · 16 · 22 · 23 · 29    + 06 $587.5 Million
Saturday, November 24, 2012 22 · 32 · 37 · 44 · 50    + 34 $325 Million
Wednesday, November 21, 2012 08 · 18 · 24 · 30 · 39    + 26 $250 Million
Saturday, November 17, 2012 03 · 15 · 27 · 58 · 59    + 20 $214 Million

2 more rollovers we be in 300m range, and 3rd rollover would be................. nasa to rocket, blast off time baby! to half a billion and BEYOND!

 

if MM is sure alive in such a rare event , , it be somewhere in 200m range by then  and with  lotto fever just shot down by PB loss, would result in everyone  flooding into MM,  MM sales have been SLOW for 2013,  about time it gets some action atfer PB blows it load

 

if both make it 300m range, i be  shocked if not at lest 1 of the 2, has more then 1 winner,  guy that won solo

Saturday, March 23, 2013 17 · 29 · 31 · 52 · 53    + 31 $338.3 Million

was lucky ot be solo winner , to bad he talked to press and claimed asap, any news on that guy, am hoping hes in hiding now..................................

 

i would also say, there in  a race,playin chicken who fall off cliff named Jackpot Winner first

but pb road about to END in 2 weeks for sure. MM got at lest a month left of road to drive on.

Ronnie, you have a good, positive attitude toward the lottery (and probably life in general).  You're already thinking like a WINNER.  I do the same thing.  Unfortunately, people think I'm nuts.  But, I won't let anyone crush my dream!!!!  Good Luck!!!  We could all use some!!! 

WINNER!!! WINNER!!! CHICKEN DINNER!!!!!  Banana
