$754 Million Mega Millions Jackpot is “No Trick” This Halloween, Say Lottery Officials

Could You Win the Halloween Mega Millions?

As the only lottery game able to produce seven jackpot wins that have gone higher than $1 billion each, the prize pool which Lottery officials have described as “no trick” is a turn up for the books, ensuring that Halloween night is not just exciting for trick-or-treaters, but for lottery thrill seekers too.

To win, you must match the six numbers on your ticket to the drawn six-number combination, which consists of five white ball numbers plus the mega ball. The winner can choose a cash payment or a series of annuity payments year after year. The annuity payments ensure that you get a bigger cut of the pie, but the cash payment gives you more cash quicker. The cash option is projected at £352.8 million, meaning this huge prize will change the winner’s life astronomically, whoever they are. 

The Previous Result

The previous draw was on Tuesday, October 28…and nobody won! Tuesday October 28 sold over 500,000 winning tickets across the nation, with winning ticket holders winning prizes of all tiers. The total amount won was over $10 million. 

The winning white ball numbers were 2, 19, 33, 53 and 61, plus the gold Mega Ball 14.
