$1.1 BILLION: Mega Millions jackpot now the eighth-largest in historyReply
Ques: would you rather win Powerball or mega millions and find out the next morning that your great aunt Hildegard passed away during a bunjee jump gone awry or would you rather lose out on the jackpot and enjoy aunt Hildegard's company for the remainder of her life .... a whooping three months ?

$1.7 billion in combined jackpots, as USA multi-state lottery games peak togetherReply
It would be shocking to see Mississippi win a Mega Millions or Powerball lottery jackpot since Mississippi is new to the jackpot lotteries as of 2020. It seems like the more lottery vending machines a state has the better chance a state has of winning the jackpot. This is why California has won the most recent jackpots because the now have the most lottery vending machines in more locations than any other state in the US

Just looked up that NJ guy (again) who dropped a $46 million Big Game (predecessor to Mega Millions) ticket in the mail. He waited almost a year to mail it too. Luckily for him it arrived, miraculously in time.

Mega Millions and Powerball offer $1.11 billion in combined lottery jackpotsReply
I will challenge you with the fact that Mega Millions tickets cost 2.00 now for starters. So now in your alleged pool if everyone puts in a dollar which is possible. You only get half as many tickets.

I used to go east to Florida, and then sometimes upwards to Georgia to purchase Powerball, Mega Millions, or Lotto tickets. 45 degrees from Florida into Georgia heading from Biloxi, Mississippi.

$1.23 BILLION: Powerball jackpot juggernaut keeps rollingReply
Thanks for the info. For some reason powerball.com is blocked on my computer and won't come up on my Android either. The block just ended for Mega millions. Glad no individual state held up the data/security stuff to Iowa as happens infrequently!
