January 8th marked exactly one week since 2019 started, and it just so happened to be a Mega Millions night. With no grand prize winner, the prize inched upwards to $50 million. Although it’ll be a while yet before a monster jackpot comes stomping through, Tuesday night was anything but uneventful.
