The big game kicks off
When it began, US Mega Millions was originally called The Big Game. In 1996 this exciting lottery showed up in six US states, Georgia, Illinois, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, and Virginia.
The lottery proved to be so popular across the US that they soon added another draw, meaning this life-changing lottery had two draws a week! In 2002 The Big Game changed its name to US Mega Millions. By 2010 there were 33 states participating in the draw, eventually growing to the now 45 states and the District of Columbia and the US Virgin Islands.
Game changers
Over the years US Mega Millions has altered the game by adding second-tier prizes up to US$5 million. They have also changed the game matrix and changed the prize structure to enable jackpots to be bigger and come along faster.
