GA Mega Millions – Georgia Mega Millions
The Georgia Lottery is 1 of 46 US State Lotteries & District Lotteries that offer the Mega Millions – in this case the Georgia Lottery Mega Millions – as part of its overall portfolio of lottery games.
The Mega Millions is a Multi-State USA Lottery game that is run and operated by the Mega Millions Consortium – who administer and syndicate it across the USA and is one of the largest lottery games in the world – having produced a massive world record jackpot in March 2012 of a huge US$ 656 MILLION. This huge sum was shared between 3 winning Mega Millions tickets from Illinois, Kansas and Maryland and is the 2nd biggest jackpot ever won in the history of jackpot lottery games around the world.
The very first Mega Millions draw took place on May 17th 2002 with 6 USA Lottery companies taking part who were all members of the Mega Millions Consortium.
The game had changed its name and format from the Big Game which had first started back on August 31st 1996. Upon this change – 2 further State Lottery companies joined with many more to follow.
Georgia Mega Millions tickets were first sold on May 17th 2002 with Georgia taking part in the very first Mega Millions draw – since the Georgia Lottery had already been an original member of the Big Game Consortium since its outset on August 31st 1996 – selling tickets for the Mega Millions GA predecessor.
Georgia Lottery Mega Millions – How it Works
The GA Lottery Mega Millions works in exactly the same way as the Mega Millions game works in all the States and Districts in the US that offer the game.
Jackpots start off at US$ 40 MILLION and ROLLOVER after each draw when the top prize is not won – making for some enormous jackpot figures that can be won on the Georgia Lottery Mega Millions.
6 numbers are drawn in total for the Mega Millions Georgia – from 2 separate drawing machines – firstly 5 numbers from 70 white balls are drawn and then 1 number (the MEGAball) from 25 gold balls.
Draws for the GA Lottery Mega Millions take place twice every week on Tuesdays and Fridays at 11.00pm EST.
MEGAPLIER…
Many USA Lottery companies that offer the Mega Millions game also offer the option of playing using a Mega Millions MEGAPLIER.
This is where in addition to the 6 Mega Millions numbers drawn a further number is drawn – the MEGAPLIER number – using a Random Number Generator…
This separate MEGAPLIER prize multiplier number drawn will be either 2, 3, 4 or 5 – and is there to give players of the MegaMillions a chance to increase their winnings on all levels of the prize structure apart from the MegaMillions jackpot itself.
MEGAPLIER enables players to multiply their winnings on these levels by 2x, 3x, 4x or 5x – greatly increasing the amount they can walk away with.
If, for example, a player matches the 5 main Mega Millions numbers playing with the MEGAPLIER add-on – and a MEGAPLIER number of 5 is drawn – the second tier Mega Millions prize of US$ 1 MILLION would be multiplied by 5 and they could win US$ 5 MILLION.

An enhancement to the MEGAPLIER option took place on October 19th 2013. | ||
