For those who may not be familiar with the Mega Millions game, it is a multi-state lottery game played in 45 states, as well as the District of Columbia and the U.S. Virgin Islands. The game offers some of the biggest jackpots in the country, with the potential to win hundreds of millions of dollars. The rules are simple – players choose five numbers from a pool of 1 to 70, and one additional number, known as the Mega Ball, from a pool of 1 to 25. If all six numbers match the numbers drawn, the jackpot is won. There are also smaller prizes for matching some of the numbers, making it a game with multiple chances to win.
