A lottery player discovered he did not actually win a $12.8 million jackpot as he initially believed, leading to a legal dispute.
As of July 10, 2026, Mega Millions and Powerball jackpots combined exceeded $1 billion, with Mega Millions offering $604 million (or $266 million cash) for a drawing that night and Powerball offering $457 million (or $205 million cash) for a Saturday drawing. In recent drawings, over 10,400 winning tickets were sold in North Carolina for Mega Millions on Tuesday and over 16,200 for Powerball on Wednesday, though the odds of winning either jackpot remain extremely low at approximately 1 in 290 million for Mega Millions and 1 in 292 million for Powerball.
