Once Tuesday night rolled around, this Pattern decided to extend its stay. Yes, the {3-2-1} Pattern had an encore in Mega Millions, and with it came a jackpot that grew to $157 million!

Mega Millions’ Mid-Month Encore Melee

If you think about it, mid-May is a crucial transition period for so many people. College graduations are underway, high school seniors are about to take to the stage, and the young ‘uns are counting down the days until school lets out. In a world of rising costs and uncertainty, one thing that’s certain these days is that whoever has millions (and millions) of dollars can have a neverending summer of sorts, provided the cards are played right.

It’s a guarantee that there were college grads and (soon-to-be) high school grads who tried their hand at Mega Millions May 17, 2022. It’s a guarantee that all were disappointed in the outcome. By the power of a Pattern encore, there were no overnight millionaires. However, a prize that grew to $131 million was sure to make some players even more determined to play again Friday night.

Will a {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern three-peat help fulfill a player’s dreams Friday night?  

With Luck, a Common Pattern

This Friday was another one of those Fridays. Yes, we’re talking about Friday the 13th! Whether you decided to take extra precautions that day (We won’t judge) or treated it like an ordinary day, one thing was constant. Mega Millions.

Why would Mega Millions change up its plans, all because humans decided a certain number that fell on a certain day was somehow unlucky? That evening was just as good as any other evening to stir up trouble, and Mega Millions did so with a commonly played Pattern. And, with a little extra help, that pushed the jackpot to $112 million.

Mega Millions in “Seis de Mayo”

“Seis de Mayo?! What the heck is that?”

We all know about Cinco de Mayo, the day when people can binge on Mexican and Tex-Mex food and partake in the wonders of margaritas with little shame (here is what the holiday is about).  Cinco de Mayo translates to “Fifth of May”, or more casually, “May 5th”. What about Seis de Mayo – May 6th? Well, Sigmund Freud was born on that day in 1857, and 81 years later, the Hindenburg disaster took place.

So, what about May 6, 2022? That’s what we’re all here for, right? We’re not sure what the history books will say about that date, but we can tell you what happened in Mega Millions. The jackpot evaded capture and grew to $86 million.

Pattern Encore on the Home Stretch

The last week of April is under way, and with it comes that summer itch. The days are getting longer, hotter, and the countdown to summer vacation is ready to kick off. Now, once you’re out of college, summer vacation usually feels out of reach until after retirement. Even if you have kids, a couple of weeks (at most) doesn’t compare to a couple of months!

There is a way, of course, to get those long summers back. Lotteries, like our dear friend Mega Millions, can make it so you needn’t wait several decades before you can have those vacations of yore. The catch is that you must win first, and lotteries often don’t give in easily.

Mega Millions certainly didn’t give in. Tuesday night was ripe for a Pattern encore and a jackpot that rose to $43 million.

Is the {2-1-1-1-1} Pattern coming back for a three-peat Friday night?

Mega Millions Taking Root

If there’s one holiday that’s underrated, it’s Earth Day. This holiday, first celebrated in 1970, is a reminder to not take our planet for granted. If it weren’t for abundant (and clean) resources, our way of life, our existence, wouldn’t be possible. Over the decades, we’ve become more aware of the impact we have, and doing more to mitigate, or even try to reverse some of the damage we’ve caused. One way to give back to the Earth (and battle climate change) is by growing trees. However, there is a different kind of tree, and although it may not help the environment much, it’s highly coveted. And Mega Millions has been nurturing one of those trees.

That tree, of course, was first planted last week. Although there was rough going, the Mega Millions jackpot was able to finally take root earlier this week. By the end of Friday night, the jackpot reached a height of $31 million.
