Mega Millions Jackpot Reaches $100 Million

LANSING, Michigan – (PRESS RELEASE)-- Lottery officials announced that no winning ticket correctly matched all six winning numbers -- 12, 28, 36, 39, 52 and the Gold Mega Ball number 36 -- in the June 11 Mega Millions drawing, pushing the jackpot for June 15 to an estimated $100 million!

One lucky Michigan Lottery player did correctly match the first five numbers in Friday's drawing to win a $175,000 prize, however. That winning ticket was sold at: Warren Express Market, 5273 E. 10 Mile Road, in Warren. If one winning ticket matches all six numbers in Tuesday night's drawing and the player has selected annuity payments over 26 years, the $100 million jackpot would amount to pre-tax payments of roughly:

* $3.84 million annually;

* $73,900 per week; or

* $10,500 per day!

For those who prefer to take their cash winnings up-front, it's a pretty nice payday as well. If one lucky cash-option player matches all six winning numbers, he or she will take home a check for approximately $58.8 million (before taxes), the estimated present cash value of Tuesday's jackpot!

Mega Millions is a multi-state lottery game in Michigan, Georgia, Illinois, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Texas, Virginia and Washington. Wagers cost $1 each and tickets can be purchased at more than 7,000 Michigan Lottery retailers statewide.
