Mega Millions and Powerball offer $1.11 billion in combined lottery jackpotsReply
Dude, MOST people who play the lottery on a regular basis LIKE the HUGE jackpots. The lottery officials know this and is the reason they will NOT be going back to the old matrix.

Mega Millions and Powerball offer $1.11 billion in combined lottery jackpotsReply
I liked it better when we weren't being lied to about the jackpots restarting at $40M ( last for the PB was on 2-15-2020) not the $20M(starting on 4-11-2020) figure they blamed on Covid. I also liked it better when the Cash to Annuity value was at 66% and not this mere 47% jargon.....Gotta take the good with the bad I suppose....Onward we go..Best of luck to everyone that participates.

This I like. 5.00 a ticket will get the pikers to stop playing yet the jackpots would increase quicker and with less numbers they would get hit more often with a normal amount of money won by more instead of these ridiculous amounts.

Ahh...throw the guy a million. Rules, schmules! They can afford it now with high interest rates and the overinflated jackpots only paying 47% of face value -instead of 60% plus not too long ago.....

$36 million Mega Millions ticket sold in Florida goes unclaimedReply
Some people buy and forget about the tickets they have purchased. I wonder how many jackpots over the past 20 years have not been claimed across the USA?

$1.76 billion Powerball jackpot won by one ticket sold in CaliforniaReply
So what is the total of tickets sold in the US compared to California= 24 mil vs 13M for NY and TX, 15M Florida. Do you see when you add all the other states numbers up they dwarf California but California still wins the Billion dollar jackpots and nothing seems strange????? You either work for the lottery or you are delusional.

$1.76 billion Powerball jackpot won by one ticket sold in CaliforniaReply
This is why I only play my State Lottery games. TN has never won the Big Jackpots. I'm been done with Power Ball. I only play TN. Cash, and TN Daily. It's a smaller jackpot, but is more than enough retire on.

$1.76 billion Powerball jackpot won by one ticket sold in CaliforniaReply
If you are going to compare California then keep in mind it borders Nevada. They do not have a lotto there and many of the residents and tourist will make a trip to the state line to buy tickets. So basically the count of tickets sold in Ca is actually for two states...not one. This is also the reason the store on the state line sells more scratch offs than anywhere else and frequently win smaller jackpots .

$1.725 BILLION: Powerball jackpot now 2nd-largest of all timeReply
Congrats to the winner/winners. I am done with it all now. It's not rigged, but it sure as hell feels like it. Plus MUSL refuses to raise the starting jackpot back to $40 million. Kind of a slap to the true player. The deal was $2.00 increase. bigger jackpots and bigger starting jackpots. Time to put my money elsewhere. Done with scratch offs, slot machines, nudge/skill machines, jackpot games, and on line. I am not a young man anymore and I cannot absorb the losses like I used to.
