The title of today’s post would suggest that someone won the Mega Millions jackpot. We can assure you that wasn’t what happened. This lottery entered October 2020 with a {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern three-peat, a necessary stepping-stone for a Pattern streak. There were other plans for October 6, 2020, and the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern was cast aside. As a result, the jackpot rose to $60 million.
