Four Mega Millions jackpots have been won to date this year, including in California, New York, Minnesota and Tennessee.

Those four were located in Delaware, New Jersey, New York and Virginia.
For Delaware, New Jersey and New York, those tickets included the Megaplier, raising the prize from $1 million to $3 million.
105 additional winners received a third-tier prize of $10,000 or more.
The odds of winning the jackpot are 1 in 303 million.
The jackpots start at $20 million and grow based on game sales and interest rates.
Mega Millions tickets are $2 and are sold in 45 states, Washington, D.C., and the U.S. Virgin Islands.
In most jurisdictions, players can add the Megaplier for an additional $1.
Drawings are held each Tuesday and Friday and conducted at 11 p.m. ET in Atlanta.
Half of the proceeds from the sale of each Mega Millions ticket remains in the state where the ticket was sold.
That money supports lottery beneficiaries and retailer commissions.
