The Season of Crazy-Large Jackpots is officially over. Monday night saw the takedown of Powerball. With that jackpot having been reset, Mega Millions became the tallest, so to speak. Did Mega Millions’ height advantage continue into Tuesday night?
Yes, yes it did! Thanks to encores by both the {2-2-1-1} Pattern and the [2-1-2-1] General Order, the jackpot climbed to $60 million.
