No one claimed the grand prize on Friday night, so the jackpot for Tuesday's drawing is up to $944 million dollars.

This is the 6th largest largest jackpot in Mega Millions history. This would also be the largest lottery jackpot ever won in New York State history.

In fact, it would almost double the current record jackpot. The largest jackpot ever won in New York State history is $476 million dollars.

That was won by Johnnie Taylor, who claimed the Mega Millions jackpot in April of 2023.

The odds of winning the grand prize are 1 in 302,575,350.
