Nebraska Lottery March Update
MEGA MILLIONS® STARTS MARCH 20
Starting March 20, Nebraska Lottery players will be able to play Mega Millions, a
multi-state jackpot game currently offered by 36 lotteries across the
United States.
With the addition of Mega Millions, Nebraska Lottery players will have
two more chances a week to win a jackpot prize by playing both
Powerball® and Mega Millions. Mega Millions tickets are scheduled
to go on sale at Nebraska Lottery retailers across the state on
Saturday, March 20. The first Mega Millions drawing to include Nebraska
tickets will be held on Tuesday, March 23.
Each Mega Millions play costs $1. Players select five
white ball numbers from 1 to 56, and one Mega Ball® number from 1
to 46. To win the jackpot prize, which starts at $12 million and grows
each time it is not won, players must match all six winning numbers.
Other prizes in the game range from $2 to $250,000. Players who choose to add
the $1 Megaplier® option have the chance to multiply their non-jackpot
prizes as many as two, three, or four times. The odds of winning the
jackpot prize are 1 in 175 million, while the overall odds of winning any prize are 1 in 40.
Mega Millions drawings are held every Tuesday and Friday
at 10:00 p.m. (CT). Winning numbers will be available at the Nebraska
Lottery web site, nelottery.com, and on the
Nebraska Lottery Players Hotline at 1-800-224-LUCK (402-471-6139 in Lincoln).
