The Mississippi Lottery Corporation just hit a major milestone. Their flagship game, Mississippi Match 5, reached its 1,000th draw. And they're celebrating with the biggest jackpot in the game's history.
Mississippi Match 5 breaks records at $925,000
The jackpot climbed to $925,000. That's the largest prize since the game launched in April 2021.
This marks the 48th drawing since someone last won the jackpot. The last winner took home $141,000 on April 12, 2025. The previous record holder was $905,168, won on February 7, 2023, at Sprint Mart #4136 in West Point.
How does Mississippi Match 5 work? The jackpot rolls over every night until someone wins. Then it resets to $50,000. Tickets cost $2. Players can add a $1 multiplier to boost non-jackpot prizes.
Jeff Hewitt, President of the Mississippi Lottery Corporation, said:
"This is a landmark moment for Mississippi Match 5. The escalating jackpot reflects the enthusiasm of our players and the game's increasing appeal."
Could Mississippi see its first Match 5 millionaire? If tonight's drawing produces no winner, that milestone becomes very real.
Lotto America climbs toward historic territory
The multi-state Lotto America jackpot reached $37.22 million. That makes it the second-largest prize in the game's history. The cash option stands at $16.36 million.
This jackpot built momentum over 169 consecutive drawings without a grand prize winner. The last jackpot winner emerged on April 1, 2023. An Iowa player claimed the game's record $40.03 million annuitized jackpot.
Lotto America operates in 15 states. Drawings happen three times weekly on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays. Tickets cost $1. The All Star Bonus option costs an extra $1 and multiplies non-jackpot prizes up to five times.
The next drawing takes place on Saturday, May 31, at 10:15 p.m. ET.
