Mega Millions fever is growing. Nobody matched all six numbers during last night's Mega Millions drawing. Here are the numbers from Friday's drawing (07/22/22):  14, 40, 60, 64, 66, plus the gold Mega Ball 16, according to the lottery’s website.  The jackpot prize is now inching toward $1 Billion Dollars. The next drawing for Mega Millions is currently estimated at $810 million with a cash option of $470.1 million.

According to the Mega Millions website, nobody drew six numbers correctly. However, four people drew the first five numbers. Those four winners opted for the Megaplier, giving each a $3 million prize. The fourth ticket to match the five numbers was worth $1 million.

Back in 2018, the jackpot was an astounding  $1.54 billion dollars and I remember the craziness that went along with it and it's happening again.  I remember people being lined up at many convenient stores during this madness. The odds of hitting a Mega Millions jackpot are 1 in 302,575,350.  Let's take a look at some fun odds things that are more likely to happen to you than winning Mega Millions.
