Record Lotto Max tonight

[projekktor id=’21094′]

For the first time ever, $60-million dollars is on the line in tonight’s Lotto Max draw.

Ticket buyers could also win one of an estimated 25 Maxmillions  prizes worth 1-million each.

The $60 million jackpot follows six weeks in which the main Lotto-Max prize went unclaimed. During that period, the jackpot went from $12 million on Aug. 14 to $55 million last Friday.

While the jackpot is a record for Lotto Max, it’s not a record for Canada.

A Lotto 6-49 jackpot in April 2013 worth 63.4-million was shared by four people.

The last major Lotto-Max jackpot worth $50 million was won on Aug. 7 by a ticket purchased in Alberta.
