There have been two Mega Millions jackpot winners so far this year, as we head into the fourth month of 2022 with a hefty purse up for grabs. It’s been three weeks since the last jackpot was hit by a lucky player in New York.
In that time, the new Grand Prize has climbed to an estimated $70 million for the 1st of April. The lump sum cash value for tonight’s drawing is $44.7 million.
In the previous drawing, a ticket sold in AZ matched the first five white balls to win a $1 million prize.

Spring has sprung, and so has a new Second Chance Promotion in PA
The PA Lottery’s Raining Riches Second Chance Drawing has officially opened for entries. Unlike recent Second Chance drawings, this spring drawing does not include any Scratch-Offs or Fast Play tickets. This one is for the draw games only.
Up until May 12, 2022, players may enter any winning or non-winning PICK 2, PICK 3, PICK 4, PICK 5, Treasure Hunt, Cash 5 with Quick Cash, Match 6 Lotto, Cash4Life, Powerball, Mega Millions and Keno tickets purchased in person, not online.
This drawing offers a higher Top Prize than recent Second Chance Drawings, but only one player will win it. The prizes to be awarded are: one top prize of $100,000, two prizes of $50,000, five prizes of $10,000, 10 prizes of $5,000 and 50 prizes of $100 to play online.
