CNN have reported that tonight’s MegaMillions lottery – the biggest lottery jackpot in the world ever – has just got bigger. Due to the extra demand, the jackpot is now sitting at $540 million. In Rands, that comes to R4.1 Billion. And you can buy tickets online or on mobile – from anywhere in the world.
CNN Reports:
The estimated jackpot for Friday night’s Mega Millions drawing rose Thursday to $540 million, extending what Mega Millions officials say already was going to be a world record for lottery jackpots.
Friday’s jackpot initially was estimated at $476 million, and then $500 million, but stronger-than-anticipated sales nationwide have helped push up the figure, lottery officials said.
The previous world record for a single jackpot, according to Mega Millions officials, was that game’s $390 million prize in a March 6, 2007, drawing. That jackpot was split by winners in Georgia and New Jersey.
The growing jackpot has drawn plenty of interest from would-be millionaires.
