Mega Millions jackpot climbs to $640 million, seventh largest in game’s history

Mega Millions players can try their luck on a $640 million jackpot tonight, the seventh largest jackpot in Mega Millions history.

A winner could claim the prize as a $640 million annuity or $328 million in cash.

While players continue going for the jackpot, the Mega Millions game keeps producing big wins in North Carolina. In Friday’s drawing, a lucky player in Gaston County matched all five white balls to win $1 million. Another nice win occurred in the drawing when a ticket purchased in Guilford County using Online Play matched four of the five white balls and the yellow Mega Ball to win $10,000.

The odds of winning the Mega Millions jackpot are 1 in 302 million.

Players can buy Mega Millions tickets at any lottery retail location or through Online Play on the lottery’s website, www.nclottery.com.
