LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- The Mega Millions jackpot climbed to an estimated $1.15 billion Wednesday morning, only the seventh time in the game's history that the jackpot has passed the billion dollar mark.

In the Dec. 24 drawing, there were a total of 4,292,338 winning tickets across all non-jackpot prize levels.
The jackpot has been rolling since it was last won at $810 million in Texas on September 10.
With only two more drawings this year, Mega Millions is on track to complete a second consecutive year with a very unusual jackpot roll pattern - indicative of the truly random nature of the game, Mega Millions said in a statement early Wednesday.
The jackpot has only been won three times so far in 2024, the fewest wins in any single year since the game began in 2002.
Friday night’s drawing will be conducted from Atlanta, Georgia, at 11 p.m. Eastern time. Soon afterwards, the draw video will be available through the Mega Millions website.
The cash option for a single winning ticket is $516.1 million.Â
Tickets for the $2 game are sold in 45 states, Washington, D.C., and the U.S. Virgin Islands.Â
