Because of open records laws, it's pretty easy to find out who the winner of any lottery prize over $600 might be in Louisiana.

There was a $50,000 winner sold in Louisiana plus 89 other tickets sold in the state are worth more than $100 this morning.

They say money can't buy happiness, a lot of us would like to test that theory with a win in tonight's Mega Millions drawing.

There was no big money winner in last night's Powerball game. However, one ticket sold in Louisiana is worth $50,000 this morning.

Friday's drawing did not yield a big jackpot winner but two tickets sold in Louisiana are worth a nice chunk of change.

Three-quarters of a billion dollars, that's how much the Mega Millions jackpot could be by Friday night.

This weekend lottery fever will once again sweep across the nation as the Mega Millions and Powerball jackpots continue to climb.

The combined jackpots are now worth more than $739 million dollars and drawings continue this week.

If you played the Powerball game last night please check your tickets. You could be holding a $50,000 winner.

There was also a $10,000 winner sold in the state for the latest Mega Millions drawing too.
