Lottery

The Mega Millions jackpot has now surpassed $1 billion.

A lot of cash is up for grabs this week, but it's not a record amount.

I never would have guessed that this is a problem, but apparently it's enough of an issue for the Minnesota State Lottery to send out an advisory.

With so many people buying tons of Powerball tickets recently, there's a higher chance some big prizes go unclaimed. The MN Lottery has an easy way to see if you forgot to check your ticket.

Again, no ticket matched all the numbers in Saturday's $510 Million Dollar Powerball drawing, so with that the jackpot grows again, up to $650 million dollars!!

No ticket matched all the numbers in last night's $430 Million Powerball drawing (Yes... that means I still have a chance), so with that the jackpot grows to $510 million dollars for this Saturday.

If there's a time to give the lottery a try, it may be this weekend. Today marks a record with Powerball and Mega Millions that we've never seen before.

Multiple Minnesota Lottery outlets will be busy the next few days as everyone and their mother would love to win this Wednesday's Powerball, which is now up to $220 million dollars! From talking to many people in and out of the radio building, as well seeing peoples reaction online...

I rarely ever buy a lottery ticket. When I DO buy one, I never check it. Does this happen to you?

We may be a little superstitious with our lotto here in Minnesota, but for good reason - we have a ton of cities that seem to keep selling lucky tickets!

If you haven't purchased your lottery ticket yet, you still have a few hours. The drawing is set for 10pm Central Time and the suspense is palpable. I've never played a lottery ticket once before, but my instincts and this jackpot have me convinced that I'm due. But instincts aren't good enough, and I've discovered a secret methodology to finding the numbers that will win me the Powerball.
