The third-largest was won by a lottery club in Oakland County in 2021 and was up to $1.050 billion.

It has been more than three months since anyone matched the game’s six numbers and took the jackpot. That’s 29 consecutive drawings without a winner.

The odds of winning the Mega Millions jackpot are 1 in 303 million. Nearly all winners take the cash option, which for Friday’s drawing will be around $747.2 million.
