Mega Millions is an American lottery game played across 45 states, plus the District of Columbia and the U.S. Virgin Islands. Many participants choose to enter Mega Millions twice a week for a chance to win the big jackpots which start at $20 million and roll over until they are won.
Draws happen on Tuesday and Friday evenings at 11:00 PM ET and take place in Atlanta, Georgia.
The Ohio Lottery joined the Mega Millions game in 2002, along with the lotteries of New York, Georgia, Illinois, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, New Jersey and Virginia.
The first tickets were sold on May 15 and the first drawing was held two days later, on May 17. In January 2011, the Megaplier option became available to all jurisdictions, thus Ohio’s first Mega Millions draw which included Megaplier was held on January 18. Megaplier is an extra feature which can be added to Mega Millions tickets, allowing players to multiply their non-jackpot prizes two, three or four times. The price for this feature is an extra $1 per ticket.
Ohio has created a number of jackpot winners since tickets went on sale in the state.
