Why Mega Millions didn't break a jackpot record
Lottery officials came in $63 million shy of the prize purse they estimated, making the $1.537 billion jackpot the second biggest lottery payout.
The Mega Millions jackpot has risen after no winner was declared on Friday night.
No one was the winner of the $52 million jackpot. The next drawing will be on Tuesday and the jackpot was expected to rise to $70 million, MLive reported.
