DALLAS (NEXSTAR) — No one was able to hit Friday night’s massive $520 million Mega Millions jackpot which means it’s growing to $600 million for Tuesday night’s drawing.
But don’t throw away those tickets just yet. Mega Millions reports hundreds of players scored smaller prizes.
The winning numbers were: 3, 6, 16, 18, 58. The Mega Ball is 11, and the Megaplier is 2.
If you were to cash out on Tuesday’s $600 million jackpot, Mega Millions says you’d take home $442 million. Not too shabby.
Saturday’s Powerball jackpot is also an unbelievably high $470 million. That’s an estimated cash value of $362.7 million for that pot.
That means between both Mega Millions and Powerball, more than a $1 billion in jackpots is up for grabs.
The odds of winning either of these — well, we’re not sure you want to know the odds. Nonetheless, best of luck to all.
