Mega Millions offers two jackpot payment options: the $178 million annuity prize paid out as one immediate payment followed by 29 annual graduated payments; or the cash option, which is approximately $118 million.
Georgia Lottery players have been experiencing loads of luck playing Mega Millions recently.
One ticket worth $10,000 was sold in Rising Fawn in the Nov. 12 drawing, and two tickets worth $10,000 and $30,000 were sold in Cartersville and Fayetteville in the Nov. 8 drawing.
