  The polls are a tie! What would be a tiebreaker? (Before the drawing)

   

  Remember, please be honest and realistic.

  Friday when the jackpot was $340 million, about 27.5 million tickets were sold. Divide the number of tickets sold by the number of possible outcomes and you'll see that there was less than a 10% chance of somebody having a jackpot winning ticket. Might be more tickets sold for the 7/17 drawing but there still will be an 85% the jackpot won't be won. 

  Would plan an outdoor event like a picnic or a wedding with an 85% chance of rain?

  This jackpot now breaks into the top 10 of all time MM jackpots

  http://www.megamillions.com/news-releases/mega-millions-jackpot-keeps-growing-to-375-million

  It might be in the top 20 list of both the PB & MM jackpots

  After what just was drawn I can't say I am shocked.  So we will see if there is a winner or not.

  How about that night when 3 tickets were sold.  One in CA, one in TN, and I think Florida.   I remember the CA ticket and all those people celebrating at that 7 11.  lmfao  like really.  Unless someone paid all those people.

    Mega Millions rolled over. Friday the 20th of July will have an Annuity = $422,000,000.00 and the Cash Lump Sum = $254,000,000.00

   Three or four tickets had the 5 + 0 runner up prize. None picked the number 12 for the mega ball.

   When should we discuss the Billion dollar jackpot? Will MM join PB this time?
