COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) - South Carolina lottery players are getting the chance to take on another multimillion-dollar jackpot each week.
Sales for the new Mega Millions game start Sunday.
The South Carolina Education Lottery Commission voted in November to enter the Mega Millions multistate drawing. Officials say the new game gives players another chance at a game with a large jackpot.
South Carolina already sells Powerball tickets, which has drawings on Wednesday and Saturday. Mega Millions drawings will be televised each Tuesday and Friday at 11 p.m.
Mega Millions holds the record for the largest U.S. lottery jackpot - $390 million on March 6, 2007. The largest Powerball jackpot was $365 million on Feb. 18, 2006.
