A record $1.55 billion jackpot is up for grabs Tuesday night, the largest in Mega Millions' history.
The prize is also the third-largest jackpot ever, but it is still almost $500 million less than the biggest lottery haul ever won. That title went to the $2.04 billion Powerball lottery, won in November 2022 by a single ticket in California.

And the winners have come from a variety of states, from California to Maine to Wisconsin.
These are the 10 biggest jackpots in lottery history, including when and where they were won.
