Mega Winning Numbers

Mega Winning Numbers, Huge attention will be focused on this Friday’s Mega Millions winning numbers after again no ticket matched all six numbers Tuesday night, resulting in the jackpot to climb to almost half a billion dollars.  The Tuesday drawing left 47 people just one number short of taking home what was the third largest jackpot in history. The prize set for Friday is estimated to be a record $476 million.

The previous record jackpot in the Mega Millions lottery was $390 million in 2007. There were two winners for that jackpot one from New Jersey and the other from Georgia. The prize was split between them.

The winning numbers for Tuesday were: 9, 19, 34, 44, 51 and the Mega Ball was 24. The 47 tickets that matched five out of the six numbers will still take home at least $250,000 and if any of those tickets used the Megaplier option for one dollar more that ticket could be worth one million.

Players who choose to add the Megaplier option for an extra dollar to their ticket and end up hitting the that number are eligible to receive up to four times the value of their original winning ticket, excluding the jackpot.
