Here's where I got my info from.. If there is no top prize winner, The Big Game jackpot prize will roll into and become the jackpot for the first draw of Mega Millions.

Right ... but .......... do you add 10 MIL to whatever the last BG jackpot was to figure out the 1st MM jackpot. Afterall ... the starting jackpot for each new MM drawing is 10 mil ... so in this case if no one wins BG at say ... 25MIL ... is the est. MM game 35 MIL

According to a press release somewhere, if no one wins the Big Game jackpot by the time the first draw of MM occurs it'll just roll over into the first Mega Millions jackpot.

I think 500 MIL jackpots will occur as often (maybe twice as often) as the BG's 300+ MIL jackpots of the past.100, 200, 300 MIL jackpots will be much more common however. Some of us will even yawn or sneeze at 100 MIl payouts.Rob

500+ million will probably occur often. The odds are so great, that the jackpot will usually hit the 100 million mark. Even a billion isn't out of the question.

30 million? I think it's better for the agents to have the first Mega Millions jackpot modest to give them time to adjust to the new game (especially in Ohio and New York). The 300+ million jackpots will come eventually.

Okay ...Tonite's BG jackpot is 15 MIL ........... if nobody hits the big money .... Tues will be at least 20 ............. and if nobody hits Tues ........ the last BG jackpot goes into the first MM jackpot.Now my question is ... considering each new MM jacpot will stat out at 10 MIL ... what are we looking at (range)for the very first MM
