Lottery fever is at an all time high and so is the new Mega Millions jackpot.

The prize money has swelled to historic amounts.

It’s now up to $1.6 billion. That’s a cash prize estimated payout of $904 million.

“It will be more money than I could ever spend in my lifetime,” said lottery fan, Linda Rast.

“A lot of excitement,” said Chuck’s owner Lupe Beltran. “A lot of people were excited and thinking about what they would do with their money.”
