Lottery Jackpots Continue to Skyrocket
Lottery players in Arkansas have a chance to win big this weekend as the lottery jackpots continue to soar.
Tonight, the Mega Millions® jackpot stands at $815 million, while the Natural State Jackpot has reached $75,000. Tomorrow night, the LOTTO jackpot will be worth $1.289 million, and the Powerball® jackpot has surged to $600 million.
The combined total for all jackpots is now more than $1.4 billion.
“The real madness in March are these dueling jackpots,” said Eric Hagler, executive director of the Arkansas Scholarship Lottery. “We are always thrilled when the jackpots go on big runs simultaneously, and Arkansans have been winning big lottery prizes weekly.”
Research indicates there is a lottery prize winner every 1.3 seconds. Additionally, purchasing these lottery tickets helps fund education in Arkansas, with over 720,000 college scholarships awarded to Arkansans since 2009.
