Mega Millions Lotto Jackpot: $640 MILLION (Drawing on 3/30/12) (2, 4, 23, 38, 46, MB:23)

[hail2skins]

did I hear 975 million on tuesday if no one wins?

That's projected, but the projection was $540 million on Thursday, so it jumped another $100 million today. I bet its over a billion on Tuesday if nobody wins.

But earlier today (or maybe yesterday) I heard there was a 90 pct chance someone would win, and I'd imagine that probably increased today with the huge interest. We'll see tomorrow.....

I couldn't imagine someone not hitting it. with over 1.36 billion tickets sold

I want the lottery to be

[HighPlainsDrifter]

I WON!!!

$2 lol

[abdcskins]

What really makes me mad is that I picked 2 4 to start out in an ESPN thread but didn't play the numbers.

I'm all the way towards the bottom- MDandGTOWN

I didn't pick 23, 38, 46, and 23 though...thankfully. Or else I would kill myself.

Really hope no one wins.

[SKINS'n'Spurs]

OK I can't believe I just wasted my time with this but....

If you played your favorite Redskins by jersey # (reported order I got was 46 23 38 4 2 23 ) you would have to really love DeAngelo Hall #23

46 Ryan Torain (most recent to wear #46)

23 DeAngelo Hall

38 George Rodgers (probably most famous #38)

4 Gano (most recent)

2 YOU WOULD HAVE TO BE REALLY WEIRD TO PICK THIS NUMBER using the wiki page of all skins players ever, I only found 3 total, two punters and a kicker

P - Ralf Modzelewski (played 28 games 89-90)

P- Kelly Goodburn (played 37 games 1990-93)

K - Eddie Murray (played 22 games 95, 00)

23 MEGA BALL = DHall again

So basically next time I pick lotto again im going same order of player position RB, CB, RB, K/P, K/P, CB

I guess that kind of locks me in to a certain set of numbers, which I don't like, I'm probably just gonna do the quick pick... I like to leave it completely up to fate...

Only thing I learned from this was...

1. D Hall is lucky and is going to have a MEGA year for us

2. #2 -Ralf Modzelewski (P) may be my next throwback jersey

I WON!!!

$2 lol

me too, goodbye to $30

I think Ga's still 48th in education, so I guess since I still have to pay school tax, with no one in school, I've done my part.

[nehneh]

Found this floating around on my facebook.

[Toe Jam]

Found this floating around on my facebook.

That would piss me off. I'd be grateful for the $250,000 but hate my life at the same time.

[Mr. Sinister]

Not sure what I'd buy off the top of my head, but if I did win, I'd go to the nearest BK and get me like 3 Victory Double Whoppers. That's where the spending spree would start.

Yeah, I'm pretty despondent over not getting the winning numbers. I had the perfect plan that I already set in motion by telling off my boss this morning in anticipation of this windfall.

**** Baltimore!

[DCranon21]

I hit the Megaball and that's it. Lucky SOB..

[Special K]

Oh snap!!! Baltimore County!!! Here's to hoping it is my best friend who lives there. She promised me a home and a car on Facebook this morning if she won (I promised her her sons' schooling would be paid for if I won)

Oh well, here's to having fun playing the infinitesimal odds another decade from now when there is another ridiculously huge jackpot

I just talked to my girlfriend on Facebook and she said it's supposedly some young dude. Her facebook friends who know him are already circulating his picture on facebook. What a lucky guy!

[Elessar78]

how does that work? So guy has winning ticket in MD. When do you get your $$? How long do they wait to see if other tickets turn up? It says on the ticket you have a year to claim your prize. So I guess he could have to wait a year (in theory) to claim it?

[renaissance]

Jeez how depressing - out of 20 tickets, we only got like 3 correct numbers (all on separate lines). Got that mega millions number twice, though! $4 here I come!!!!!!

They know how many winners there are and the pool is divided up amongst them.

Anyone with a winning ticket can come forward immediately and claim there portion of the jackpot.

[cactitle]

I won a whopping 3 bucks. Gonna consult a financial adviser to see what to do with this windfall. Please people, Don't call me up asking me for money!

[ixcuincle]

Congrats to Clay Davis on winning the lottery.

there are now three newly-minted members of the one percent. confirmed lottery winners in maryland, kansas, illinois.

[DM72]

3 tix were sold in Maryland, Illinois and Kansas. I'll take a wild guess and say that the Illinois winner was a huge MJ fan.

[Koolblue13]

I guess I'm going to have to get my sailboat the old fashion way. Like a pirate!

[NotSoSuper]

I can only imagine how that guy is feeling right now, must be great

[Bubble Screen]

I wonder how much money Chris Singleton won last night? Seriously, what an idiot. Who drops $10,000 on the lottery?
