Mega Millions jackpot climbs to $330 million

December 19, 2020 Posted by NC Lottery at 2:54 PM

The results from Friday’s Mega Millions jackpot are now in and posted.

No one won Friday’s jackpot so it will grow to $330 million as an annuity or $252.8 million in cash on Tuesday.

If you had a winning ticket in Friday's drawing, you can now collect prizes of $599 or less at your local lottery store.

There was a delay until mid-afternoon on Saturday in posting the results.

While the drawing was complete, state lotteries that are part of the Mega Millions game had to complete all checks and balances for the game before prizes anywhere can be paid and the jackpot amount can be updated. Those checks and balances in one state took longer than normal.

We apologize for the delay and appreciate your patience.

Congratulations to our winners.

Why havent the website been updated to play plplay pick 3 and pick 4 online during this papandemic? It would be more safe for us.NC Lottery
Thanks for your suggestion, we always appreciate knowing what new features our players would like to see in Online Play. However, at this time the lottery commission has not approved Pick3 or Pick 4 for online sales.
