And so, it happened. Three months of build-up and suspense has led to this moment. On the night of July 15, 2022, Mega Millions pulled up a chair at The Half-Billion Club, all thanks to the many who tried and failed to claim the prize. As the jackpot was bordering the half-billion-dollar mark, it went above and beyond to $530 million.
