MEGA MILLIONS JACKPOT IS $540,000,000 AND KEEPS ON GROWING. HEY, YOU NEVER KNOW!

It's the largest Lottery Jackpot anywhere ever. Some would say - You've got to be in it to win it.

If you don't buy a ticket in the Mega Millions lottery, no way you're going to win the all-time record jackpot, just raised to $540 million dollars. The drawing is Friday night. The odds stink. One chance in 175.7 million. If you do not play, you will never win.

The New York Lottery continues to be North America's largest and most profitable Lottery. Last year, it contributed over $3 billion in fiscal year 2010-2011 to help support education in New York State. The Lottery's aid represents over 15 percent of total state education funding to local school districts.

Lottery revenue is distributed to local school districts by the same statutory formula used to distribute other state aid to education. It takes into account both a school district's size and its income level; larger, lower-income school districts receive proportionately larger shares of Lottery school funding.
