MegaMillions Jackpot Keeps on Growing

People are rushing to convenience stores ahead of tonight's MegaMillions drawing that has a jackpot near one-billion-dollars.  Lottery officials say the 970-million-dollar prize amount ballooned due to "brisk sales."  The sum is the second-biggest payout in U.S. lottery history.  People are also buying up tickets for Saturday night's Powerball drawing with a jackpot estimated at 430-million.
