March 26, 2021 saw a shift in the Patterns. Instead of an encore from the most commonly seen Pattern, we saw a visit from one that’s not so commonly seen. That is, we shifted from the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern to the {1-1-1-1-1-1} Pattern. With the {1-1-1-1-1-1} Pattern came the ever-wonderful Australia Play! The jackpot bounded away from the players and increased to $152 million.
General Lottery Analysis
The 19th Australia Play was made possible by 4, 25, 37, 46, 67 and MB 15.
Given the 657 Mega Millions drawings, that means the {1-1-1-1-1-1} Pattern, [1-1-1-1-1-1] General Order, and 1 1 1 1 1 1 General Order have played 2.89% of the time. Prior to Friday night, January 22, 2021 was the last time we saw an Australia Play.
Three-Number Combinations
Bundled up in this Australia Play were three repeating Three-Number Combinations:
- 25, 37, 46 (Debuted June 4, 2019)
- 37, 67, MB 15 (Debuted November 20, 2015)
- 37, 46, MB 15 (Debuted October 14, 2014)
Will an Australia Play do the unexpected and make an encore Tuesday night, or will Mega Millions say goodbye to March in a more “normal” manner?
