California Lottery Jackpot Hits Half Billion Dollars
There were nine tickets that had five winning numbers but no one had five plus the mega number.
The California Lottery Mega-Millions game has a half billion-dollar jackpot for Friday night’s draw. Let that roll around on your tongue for a while. Half a billion dollars. $500 million. A whole lotta cash. Any way you phrase it, if you win the jackpot you better learn how to say “new tax bracket.”
The big jackpot could mean instant financial security for some lucky person and a chance at some serious philanthropy.
You can buy Mega-Millions tickets in on 41st Avenue. The Lottery machine is located just around the corner from the US Bank, near the produce section.
