Mega Millions Jackpot Rolls Over to $311 Million After No Winner on Friday, January 26th

No one walked away with the $285 million Mega Millions jackpot on Friday, January 26th, 2024, but that doesn’t mean the night was a complete bust! While the top prize remains unclaimed, the drawing still delivered some excitement and a bigger jackpot for the next lucky ticket holder.

The Winning Numbers:

  • White Balls: 14, 31, 34, 50, 61
  • Mega Ball: 13
  • Megaplier: 3x

So, who won big (ish)?

While no one hit the elusive jackpot, two lucky tickets matched five white balls, each snagging a cool $1 million prize (tripled to $3 million thanks to the 3x Megaplier!). These winning tickets were sold in New York, leaving New Yorkers with a reason to celebrate even without the grand prize.

Jackpot Jumps!

With no Mega Millions winner, the jackpot rolls over to a mouth-watering $311 million, or a cash option of $147 million, for the next drawing on Tuesday, January 30th, 2024. So, get your lucky charms ready because the next Mega Millions draw could change someone’s life (and generate some serious FOMO if you miss out!).

Here are some other interesting tidbits from the January 26th drawing:

  • There were over 2.2 million winning tickets in total, with prizes ranging from $2 for matching just the Mega Ball to the $3 million Match 5 prizes.
  • The overall sales for the drawing topped $387 million, showing that even without a jackpot winner, Mega Millions continues to be a popular lottery game.
  • The $311 million jackpot is the 15th largest in Mega Millions history, so Tuesday’s drawing could be one for the history books!
