Will a $344-Million Jackpot Give You Lottery Fever?
Both of the big midweek drawings offered by the Georgia Lottery have larger jackpots after no tickets matched all the winning numbers over the weekend.

The high prices for tickets to a college bowl game and the travel expenses to get there would be no match for anyone lucky enough to win one of the multi-million dollar drawings offered by theΒ Georgia LotteryΒ this week.
The jackpots offered by theΒ Mega MillionsΒ andΒ PowerballΒ games remained unclaimed after the latest weekend drawings, which means theyβll be even bigger for lottery players taking part in the midweek drawings.
The biggest prize remains the one offered by theΒ Mega MillionsΒ game. As of Monday afternoon, it stood at an estimated $344 million. The next drawing will be held Tuesday night.
