Did anyone win Mega Millions last night, Mar. 24, 2023?

Nobody matched all six numbers to win the Mega Millions jackpot.

A ticket purchased in California and a ticket bought in Texas matched all five numbers except for the Mega Ball worth $1 million.

You only need to match one number in Mega Millions to win a prize. However, that number must be the Mega Ball, worth $2.

Matching two numbers won't win anything in Mega Millions unless one of the numbers is the Mega Ball. A ticket matching one of the five numbers and the Mega Ball is worth $4.

The Mega Millions jackpot for Tuesday's drawing grew to an estimated $322 million with a cash option of $174.3 million, according to megamillions.com.

Drawings are held two times per week at approximately 10 p.m. CT every Tuesday and Friday.
