Mega Millions Lottery Jackpot Beginning To Climb Once Again

There are two ways of looking at the Mega Millions lottery jackpot. It is either a good way to lose money, since people have been having a hard time hitting the winning numbers this year.

Or, it is a great opportunity to be the lucky person that wins the huge jackpot that others have been building. Either way, the buzz around the multistate lottery is once again growing.

The jackpot for the Mega Millions lottery is now up to $135 million. The last time the number grew over $100 million, it continued to grow, and eventually became one of the biggest jackpots in the game's history.

Now, with the jackpot again rising, people will help it rise quickly. With each draw that nobody hits the winning numbers, more and more gamblers will come out and buy tickets.

On Friday, seven people were lucky and unlucky all at the same time. they were lucky because they matched five numbers and won $250,000 each. They were unlucky because they were only a Mega Ball match stood between them and the millions they could have won.

Fifty one gamblers hit the Mega Ball, but only were able to match four of the five winning numbers. They won $10,000 each. The next drawing is tonight.
