So the jackpot rolled over to 105 million bucks!

Two tickets bought in California for yesterday’s game got all but the Mega Ball number right. Each ticket is worth $146, 446. The next Mega Millions draw is this Friday, March 4 at 8 p.m.

The Mega Millions is a hot ticket today. The reason: the jackpot for that lottery game is simmering at $88 million. In last Friday’s draw, no one got all the winning digits right. Those numbers are: 4, 5, 17, 19, 50, and the Mega Ball 7.

Once again, some lucky player in California did match five of the winning numbers, but missed the Mega Ball. That ticket is worth $261, 782.

The Mega Millions draw is this evening at 8 p.m.

The owner of that $10 million SuperLotto Plus ticket is no longer a mystery.  Yesterday, Hollywood prop maker/Burbank resident, Brian McMahon, cashed in the ticket he bought for last Saturday’s SuperLotto Plus game at La Paz Liquor on West Magnolia Boulevard in Burbank.

McMahon is planning to “have a great life,” buy a new home, a new truck, and put aside s0me of his winnings for his family. He told lottery officials: “I want to make the money grow and secure my children’s future and my grandchildren’s future.”

The couple that owns La Paz Liquor, Daniel and Jin Roh, got $50,000 for selling that winning SuperLotto Plus ticket.

Logo for the Californa Lottery and the Mega Millions game

No one hit the jackpot by picking all of the winning numbers in last night’s Mega Millions lottery draw. The lucky digits are 5, 6, 7, 30, 45, and the Mega Ball 42. Two California tickets got all but the Mega Ball number right. Each is worth $105,764.

Also, we’ve got a local winner who scored big time on the day after Valentine’s Day. In last Tuesday’s draw, one ticket matched the winning numbers 17, 18, 24, 35, and 39 –but missed the Mega Ball number of 18. That ticket is worth $403, 806. It was sold at Black Jack Market, 12643 Sherman Way in North Hollywood.

The next Mega Millions draw is Tuesday, February 22.

The money is stacking up once again in the Mega Millions lottery game. No one picked all of last Tuesday’s winning numbers: 17, 18, 24, 35, 39, and the Mega Ball 18. That pumped the jackpot up to $52 million.

One ticket, bought in California, got all but one of those lucky numbers right. That ticket was missing the correct Mega Ball number. That ticket is worth $403, 806 — not bad for a dollar investment.  

Th next draw is tomorrow, Friday, February 18 at 8 p.m.

Megal Millions jackpot jumps to $77 million: Two CA tickets win more than 200G

Fronnie Lewis
January 26th, 2011

Logo for the Californa Lottery and the Mega Millions game

The Mega Millions jackpot appears to be headed into that lottery fever zone again. No ticket held all of the winning numbers — so the jackpot grew to $77 million. The lucky digits from yesterday’s draw: 5, 8, 31, 46, 50 and the Mega Ball 4.

Two California players did score a nice payback from that game. Those tickets missed out on the big one — by one number — the Mega Ball. Each ticket is worth $118, 692. That extra cash could ease some of the financial pains of trying to make ends meet in this economy.

The next Mega Millions draw is this Friday, January 28 at 8.p.m.

Two California players missed winning yesterday’s Mega Millions jackpot by one number — the Mega Ball.  However, each of their tickets is worth a stack of money — $111,461. Not enough to retire on — but that should cover those holiday bills with some left over for a really nice spring vacation.  The hot digits from Friday’s game:  5, 9, 21, 35, 38, and the Mega Ball 20.

Since no one scored all of the winning numbers yesterday, the Mega Millions lottery jackpot got bumped up to $63 Million. The next draw is Tuesday, January 25, 8 p.m.

Clip Art of dollar bills

The Mega Millions jackpot today is stuffed with a lot of greenbacks — $30 million . No one picked all six winning numbers in yesterday’s game. Those hot numbers are 1, 4, 11, 16, 45, and the Mega Ball 37.

A few days ago on January 4, two lucky tickets scored the second biggest Mega Millions money pot — 380 million bucks. Now, the Mega Millions jackpot is growing again. Could it be headed into that triple digit money stratosphere? Maybe.

The next Mega Millions draw is this Friday, January 14, at 8 p.m.

Mega Millions results: 10 big winners in California

January 5th, 2011

Mega Millions logo

The second largest Mega Millions jackpot is history. In yesterday’s draw for a $380 million money pot — two tickets — one in Idaho and the other in Washington state — had all six of the winning numbers.  Those lucky digits are: 4, 8, 15, 25, 47, and the Mega Ball 42. Mega Millions is played in California and 41 other states.

Yesterday morning, the double M jackpot soared to $355 million. By game time last night, lottery fever had pumped that jackpot up to $380 million. Even though, no one in California won the major prize – 10 players picked all of the winning numbers except the Mega Ball. Each of those hot tickets is worth a nice $209, 300.

The next draw is Friday, January 7,  at  8 p.m. The jackpot has shrunk to $12 million — not huge, but still plenty of dough to take care of a lot of money worries in this struggling economy.

The Mega Millions jackpot blew-up again! No one picked all of the winning numbers in yesterday’s New Year’s Eve draw. So today the jackpot skyrocketed to $290 million and will most likely go even higher before Tuesday’s game – with lottery fever on the rampage.

The winning numbers from yesterday’s game: 10, 12, 13, 35, 56 and the Mega Ball 9. Two California players came real closer to winning the money pot. Both of those tickets had all of the lucky numbers, except the Mega ball. Each one is worth a hefty sack of moolah, $579,888.

The next chance to score this huge Mega Millions jackpot is Tuesday, January 4 at 8 p.m.
