Mississippi Powerball and Mega Millions Sales Top $500,000 on First Day

It's been a busy week for the Mississippi Lottery, with the launch of two big multi-state games, Powerball and Mega Millions, last Thursday.

Ticket sales were over half a million dollars on the first day, more than double the expected amount. There was excitement as players lined up outside retailers at sunrise for a chance to win jackpots that start at $40 million and often roll over into the hundreds of millions.

The Lottery began operating on November 25, 2019, with four scratch-off games. Since then, it's introduced new scratch-offs on the first Tuesday of January and February and committed to continue to launch new games every month. Currently, 16 scratch-off games are available.

Mississippi also has big plans to launch more new draw games this year, including Lotto America and Cash 4 Life. A three-digit, four-digit, and five-digit game are also in the works, but no names have been announced. Details will be posted on the Mississippi Lottery page as soon as they are released.

The next Powerball drawing, for a $50 million jackpot, will take place tonight. The Mega Millions jackpot stands at $167 million and the next draw will be held on Friday. Save yourself a trip in the cold and get your tickets online for both games.
