To think that the month is (almost) halfway over! Believe it or not, some kids have already traded the beachballs for the books and for the others, it’s just a matter of time. Mega Millions need not concern itself with school or holidays. If it could, then August 14, 2018 would be “Avalanche Day”. The fallout of Avalanche Day was a rising jackpot, now at $88 million.
