The Mega Millions jackpot rolled over to $119 million after no players matched all six numbers drawn Tuesday night, and if that’s not a big enough prize for you, the jackpot is about twice that size for Wednesday’s Powerball multi-state lottery.
The Mega Millions numbers drawn Tuesday were 2, 12, 18, 54 and 56, and the Mega Ball was 1.
The drawing for Wednesday’s $245 million Powerball can be seen live on WSB-TV just before the Action News Nightbeat at 11 p.m. The next Mega Millions drawing is Friday night.
The Powerball jackpot has been climbing since August 10, Georgia Lottery officials said.
If a single player matches all six numbers in Wednesday night’s Powerball drawing and that player chooses the cash option, he or she will receive a one-time payout of approximately $136 million before taxes.
Meanwhile, lottery officials announced Tuesday that a Powerball ticket sold at a Publix Super Market in Roswell matched the first five numbers in the August 28 drawing, and is worth $1 million.
