Mega
Millions Jackpot Rises to $90 Million
Lucky players nationwide continue
to win big with the Mega Millions game. In Friday's
Mega Millions drawing, a total of 570,477 tickets
from coast to coast won prizes, including two
tickets that won $250,000. Since no ticket matched
all six numbers to win the jackpot, the jackpot
grows an estimated $90 million for the Tuesday,
October 18, 2005 drawing.
The winning numbers
in Friday's drawing were: 06-20-24-25-34 and
the Mega Ball number was 44.
The
two tickets that each won $250,000 did so by
matching the first five numbers and only missing
the Mega Ball number. Both tickets were purchased
in Georgia.
Mega
Millions is played in 12 states: California,
Georgia, Illinois, Maryland, Massachusetts,
Michigan, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Texas,
Virginia and Washington.
Mega
Millions drawings are held Tuesdays and Fridays
at 11:00 PM Eastern Time, 10:00 PM Central Time
and 8:00 PM Pacific Time.
