UPDATE [11 p.m.]: Tuesday night's winning Mega Millions numbers were 69, 45, 61, 3 and 49 with the MegaBall being 9.
ORIGINAL STORY: In the history of Mega Millions, no one has won more money than the amount that's up for grabs tonight.
That jackpot has been bumped up to a record $667 million, Georgia Lottery spokeswoman Nia Roberts said.
It's the third-largest jackpot in U.S. history, Roberts said. Since July 27, the jackpot has rolled over 23 times.
There’s two ways to redeem the multimillion dollar prize. The winner can receive one immediate payment followed by 29 annual graduated payments or $380 million in cash all at once.
You can watch the drawing at 11 p.m. Tuesday, right before the Channel 2 Action News Nightbeat.
If you also win Wednesday’s Powerball jackpot of $345 million, you’ll almost be able to call yourself a billionaire. It has rolled over 18 times since Aug. 15.
Tickets for both lotteries cost $2 to play.
