Mega Millions Jackpot Increases to $112 Million

The Mega Millions jackpot has increased to $112 million after no one won the $96 million prize in the recent drawing. A Michigan player secured a $3 million prize by matching all five white balls with a 3X multiplier. This winning ticket was purchased online at MichiganLottery.com, and the prize must be claimed within a year. The Mega Millions game recently underwent changes, improving the odds of winning the jackpot and increasing the ticket price from $2 to $5, intending to offer larger jackpots more frequently. Drawings for Mega Millions are held every Tuesday and Friday, and tickets are sold in 45 states, Washington D.C., and the U.S. Virgin Islands.
