Mega Millions Soars to $800 Million! It's the Tenth Highest in Lottery History
· Telemundo McAllen (KTLM)
The Mega Millions jackpot has surged to $800 million, marking the tenth largest prize in the lottery's history after no one matched the winning numbers from Friday's draw. The winning numbers were 2, 5, 42, 44, 60, and the Mega Ball 1. Winners can choose between a lump-sum cash payment of $344.2 million or an annuity option paid over 30 years. Both options are subject to federal taxes, and state taxes may apply depending on the winner's location. The odds of winning the jackpot are 1 in 290,472,336, while the odds of winning any prize are 1 in 23. Mega Millions draws occur every Tuesday and Friday in 45 states, Washington D.C., and the U.S. Virgin Islands, but not in Alabama, Alaska, Arkansas, Hawaii, Mississippi, Nevada, Utah, Wyoming, and Puerto Rico.
