Mega Millions Keeps Climbing, Number 67 returns after 28 drawings away, Powerball ticket holders score $1M · The Lottery Rundown: Powerball & Mega Millions Results, Trends and News

Mega Millions Keeps Climbing! This is The Lottery Rundown for Saturday September 26th Mega Millions drew Friday night with 25, 57, 58, 67 and 68, plus Mega Ball 16. Nobody matched all six. Number 67 returned after 28 drawings away and remains tied among the five least-drawn white balls over the past six years. That is quite a sabbatical for a numbered sphere. Meanwhile, 68 repeated from the previous draw; do you think it has unpacked yet? Tuesday’s jackpot is estimated at 300 million dollars, with a cash value of 124 million 100 thousand dollars. With that, you could establish a national institute devoted to finding the one kitchen lid that fits every leftover container, then give it a marble lobby. The jackpot run has reached 17 drawings and 59 days, roughly normal for Mega Millions. Moving to Powerball, the last draw was Wednesday, September 23, with 5, 15, 26, 29 and 30, plus Powerball 14 and a 5X multiplier. No ticket hit the jackpot, but ticket holders in Georgia and Pennsylvania each scored 1 million dollars by matching the five white balls. Powerball 14 reinforced its six-year lead with its 50th appearance, while white ball 26 remains among the five least drawn despite turning up Wednesday. Tonight’s jackpot is estimated at 360 million dollars, with a cash value of 149 million 800 thousand dollars. The prize has rolled through 18 drawings and 42 days without a jackpot winner, a fairly typical stretch rather than a historic holdout.
