It’s the perfect time for Maryland Lottery players to get their
tickets. The Mega Millions and Multi-Match games
could make someone a multi-millionaire. The Mega Millions
jackpot for tonight has soared to $170 million. Maryland’s own
Multi-Match jackpot for tomorrow night has reached $3.75 million
for the first-time ever.
Maryland
players have been winning big all year long with Mega Millions.
Since January, 24 second-tier winners won $250,000 each and 127
third-tier winners received $10,000 each. The Mega Millions
jackpot was last won on July 7th when a New York resident
took home $133 million. Players must match all five numbers plus
the Mega Ball to win the jackpot.
The
Multi-Match jackpot has been rolling since a truck driver from
Glen Burnie won $1.2 million on March 26th. Since the
games inception in 2006, the largest Multi-Match jackpot was
$3 million, which was claimed by a subscription winner in November
2008. To win the big jackpot, players must match all six numbers
on one line.
