Six tickets, sold in Acworth, Americus, Blairsville, Rome, Tennille and Villa Rica, matched four of the first five numbers along with the Mega Ball and won $10,000, while one player in Valdosta increased a $10,000 prize to $40,000 with the “Megaplier” option.
If a single player matches all six numbers in Friday night’s drawing and chooses the cash option, that player will win approximately $205 million.
The Mega Millions top prize has been steadily climbing since a College Park woman won a $72 million jackpot in late January.
The jackpot for Wednesday night’s Power Ball lottery is $70 million.
