Mega Millions now at $1.25 Billion

The Mega Millions jackpot is leaving a ‘lotto-money’ on the table for Friday’s drawing.

No one matched all five numbers plus the Mega Ball in Tuesday night’s Mega Millions drawing, meaning the jackpot keeps growing and growing.

$1.25 billion is now up for grabs in this Friday’s drawing.

Stop N’ Geaux Owner Jennifer Weems says she hopes they see a lottery winner from South Mississippi. “Oh, we would love for the winner to be here or anywhere in South Mississippi. It would just be exciting for our whole state, the community. It brings back to our local schools, our roads. So, it’s exciting. We would love any kind of winner, whether it be a million-dollar winner or of course the jackpot would be enormous.”

This all comes on the heels of the recent Powerball craze and a $1 billion jackpot for that game.
