The march towards Christmas continues and the Mega Millions jackpot continues to snowball. What helped propel the jackpot to $372 million? Pattern streaks haven’t been a thing for Mega Millions lately, nor have playbacks. What has been a thing lately is the appearance of repeating Three-Number Combinations.
