The Mega Millions jackpot has reached an astounding $650 million for Tuesday night’s drawing, after no one claimed the big prize on Friday night. The winning numbers will be drawn at around 11 p.m. EST, with an estimated cash option of $314.4 million for the lucky winner.
The winning numbers for the previous drawing on Tuesday, March 5, were 2, 49, 50, 61 and 70, with a Mega Ball of 14 and a Megaplier of 2X. The Mega Millions results for the upcoming drawing will be posted as soon as they are released.
Players have the option to purchase tickets in stores or online in select states and territories. They can choose their own numbers or opt for a computer-generated “Quick Pick.” Additionally, players have the option to add the “Megaplier” for an additional $1, which can increase non-grand prize winnings.
