uh uh, yall know what time it is.
For only the tenth time in the history of United States lotteries, a lottery jackpot run-up has crossed into $300 million+ territory.

The new high-water mark for the current Mega Millions jackpot was achieved after no winning tickets were sold for Tuesday night's $244 million grand prize.

The lump-sum cash payout value of Friday's Mega Millions jackpot is $193.6 million.

The mammoth prize is the result of 14 draws without a winner. The run-up started as a $12 million prize on Feb. 4.

The winning numbers for Tuesday, March 22, 2011 were 1, 14, 35, 50, and 53, with Mega Ball number 43. The Megaplier number was 4.

Even though nobody won the jackpot Tuesday, 26 lucky players matched the first 5 numbers for a $250,000 prize: 1 from Arizona, 5 from California, 2 from Georgia, 1 from Maryland, 1 from Massachusetts, 2 from Michigan, 1 from Minnesota, 1 from Nebraska, 9 from New York, 1 from Pennsylvania, and 2 from Texas.

The 5 California winners will each be awarded prizes of $297,525, because California awards all prizes in a pari-mutuel formula, which calculates the prize amount based on the number of tickets sold and the number of winners in each prize category. The winners are helped because there were no second-prize winners from California in the previous drawing, which increased the second prize pool in this drawing.

The winning numbers for Friday's Mega Millions lottery drawing will be published at USA Mega (www.usamega.com) right after the drawing takes place at 11:00 PM Eastern Time.

USA Mega is one of the few lottery Web sites with a robust technology backbone that keeps it running strong, even when massive player traffic melts down other state lottery Web sites.

The site provides lottery players in-depth information about the United States's two biggest multi-state lottery games, Mega Millions and Powerball.

Top 10 United States lottery jackpots of all time

Friday's Mega Millions jackpot currently stands as the 10th-largest lottery jackpot of all time in the United States.  That position may rise before the drawing Friday night, as lotteries are typically conservative in their initial estimates, and brisk sales may push the jackpot estimate higher by draw time.

If nobody wins Friday, it's anyone's guess how high it will go.

But seriously, back in my college days my roommates and I would talk for hours and hours about the things we would do and buy IF we ever won the lottery. Most of us all agreed that we would retire our parents so they would never have to work a single day in their life again AND the next thing was to move far, far away from everyone...without telling them. We all agreed that if one of us won it all, we would buy the others in the apartment a new Mercedes or BMW. We would always joke around and say that if one of us was totally missing for awhile, that he probably won the lottery.

Then the next thing you know a new car would show up on your doorstep!!

This is a tough game to beat unless youre using a system. Odds of matching all five numbers + the Mega Ball and winning the Jackpot in Mega Millions are 1 in 175,000,000.

I didnt use a system I just played a $2 Quickpick. Quickpick is when you let the computer randomly select ALL the numbers for you. ( Yes some people have actually won Jackpots using a quick pick )
The only thing I matched tonight was the number 35!
