The New York lottery is selling almost $2 million in tickets an hour ahead of Tuesday night’s record-breaking $1.6 billion Mega Millions jackpot – and the pot could still rise before the 11 p.m. drawing.

There were no winners in the Mega Millions drawing Friday night, and the jackpot for the next drawing is now $1.6 billion. Brian Thompson reports.

A $63 million lotto jackpot could become the largest prize to go unclaimed in California Lottery history if the lucky player doesn’t come forward by Thursday, officials said.

New Yorkers are spending as much as $4.3 million per minute on Powerball tickets Wednesday in the hours before the historic drawing worth $1.5 billion, the state gaming commission announced.

A $63 million-winning lottery ticket sold at a Southern California convenience store could wind up being the largest unclaimed prize in California Lottery history if the winner doesn’t come forward soon, lotto officials said.

Two people who say they were victimized by a registered sex offender when they were children two decades ago have filed a lawsuit seeking damages for pain and suffering after he won $3 million in a Florida Lottery jackpot.
