Current Jackpot $ 99,000,000
The Oregon Lottery is 1 of 46 US State & District Lotteries that offer the hugely popular Mega Millions game – in this case the Oregon Mega Millions – as part of its overall portfolio of lottery games.
The Mega Millions is a Multi-State USA Lottery that is run and operated by the Mega Millions Consortium – who administer and syndicate the game across the U.S.A. and is one of the largest lottery games in the world – having produced a massive world record jackpot of an incredible US$ 656 MILLION in March 2012. This amazing amount was shared between 3 winning Mega Millions tickets from Illinois, Kansas and Maryland and to date 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 and more would follow.
Tickets for the Oregon Mega Millions were first sold back on March 28th 2010 when the Multi State Lottery Association (MUSL) who run the Powerball game – of which the Oregon Lottery is a member – entered into a cross-selling agreement with the Mega Millions consortium – allowing the sales of Mega Millions in Powerball states and Powerball in Mega Millions states.

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.
6 numbers are drawn in total for the Oregon Lottery Mega Millions from 2 separate drawing machines – firstly 5 numbers are drawn from 70 white balls and then 1 number (the MEGAball) from 25 gold balls.
