Winning Mega Millions Ticket Sold in Delaware
It wasn’t the jackpot but it wasn’t any chump change! There was a winning Mega Millions ticket sold in Delaware for Friday night’s drawing.
Friday night saw the Mega Millions jackpot soar to a crazy $660 million! No one won the full amount so the new drawing to be held Tuesday will be approaching $800 million.
Three multi-million dollar winning tickets were sold in the Northeast. New Jersey, New York and Delaware are saw new milli0naire’s be crowned.
All those tickets had the Megaplier which means each person scored $3 million in cash. An additional ticket was sold in Virginia which saw someone win a cool $1 million.
The new drawing is expected to be at least the fourth largest in the history of the game in the United States.
No one has won the Mega Millions jackpot since April where the winner scored a mere $20 million.
The next Mega Millions drawing will be held Tuesday night at 11 p.m. according to NewsBreak.
Hopefully, Tuesday night at 11:01 pm. we’ll be able to see another winning Mega Millions ticket sold in Delaware.
Your odds of winning do vary however.
According to Investopedia your chances of winning the lottery, the Power Ball specifically, is 1 in 292.2 million
Comparatively, you have a better chance of getting struck by lightning, dying from a hornet, wasp, or be sting, or dying in a cataclysmic storm.
All very morbid so I’ll take my chances on a $2 Mega Millions ticket! Or just collect from everyone in the office and go in a pool together.
It’s fun!
What would you buy with all that money? Would you take the cash option or choose the annuity?
Either way its fun to think about what you would do with the money, even if you only win a few bucks.
If you do buy a ticket, don’t be like this woman in California who destroyed her winning ticket!
