ATLANTA (AP) - There has been another rollover in the grand prize for the multistate Mega Millions lottery game to $94 million.

The rollover occurred because no player matched all the winning
numbers from Friday night's $81 million drawing.

The next drawing will be Tuesday night.

Although there was no grand prize winner, seven players, including two who bought their tickets in Illinois, won second prizes of $250,000 apiece. One of the Illinois winning tickets was sold as a Quick Pick at a liquor store in Watseka, and the other was sold at a service station in Oak Forest. Another 42 players, including four from Illinois, won third prizes of $10,000 apiece.

The winning numbers from Friday night's drawing were: 11, 15,
17, 29, and 46. The Mega Ball number was 16.

The purpose of the article is to entice people to spend money and purchase a ticket. Duh!!! If people see the jackpot is higher then they will be tempted to buy more tickets. Do I really have to explain this? Thought it would be common sense.

What do you think about Tiger's return to golf for the Masters Tournament?

  • Too soon, he should focus on his family
  • He's apologized, it's time for him to return to the game
