(Baton Rouge, LA) The Louisiana Lottery had a very busy night last night. Our sources in Baton Rouge at the Lottery offices say there were multiple "10x" winners in the state as part of Tuesday's multi-state Mega Millions drawing.

The "enhanced wins" are part of the new format of the Mega Millions Lottery game that was introduced to Louisiana's lottery players in April of this year. It was noted that before the ping pong balls left the hopper for last night's drawing, the estimated jackpot prize was $714 million.

Last night's Mega Millions drawing was only the ninth time the game has offered a jackpot prize in excess of $700 million. The jackpot was also the ninth-largest jackpot ever produced by the game.

See the Mega Millions Lottery Drawing for October 28, 2025

The last time a Mega Millions jackpot was won, it was 34 drawings ago. And after Tuesday's game, we can with confidence tell you it is now 35 drawings ago. So, no. No one won the jackpot prize of $714 million in last night's drawing.

Our sources at Mega Millions indicate that game officials are now preparing for a historic drawing on Friday night. The jackpot on Friday is estimated to be $754 million for the annuitized jackpot or $352.8 million for the cash option. With those numbers in play, Friday's Mega Millions drawing will be for the largest lottery prize ever offered in a Halloween drawing.

Game officials tell us that, in addition to the no jackpot wins last night, there were also no Match 5 Million wins either. In fact, the largest prize that we saw on the game board was a pair of tickets that earned a prize of $40,000 each, and no, those tickets were not sold in Louisiana.

Meanwhile, the Louisiana Lottery is suggesting that quite a few lottery players "have a reason to smile" this morning since last night's game did produce an abundance of winning tickets with a "ten times" multiplier attached.

Now, as you check your tickets, if you feel as though you have a prize-worthy match, you can verify that win via the Winners Portal at the Louisiana Lottery website.

Based on data from Tuesday night, it looks as if there were slightly over 2,100 winning tickets sold in Louisiana. And, we did mention the "10x" multiplier, so you'll be pleased to know that 161 of those winning tickets had their prize winnings multiplied by 10. The biggest prize awarded to a Louisiana ticket in Tuesday's drawing was $2,500. Oddly enough, that big win came on a "5x" multiplier.
