Mega Millions overdue numbers
Mega Millions has been drawn as 5 numbers from 70 plus a Mega Ball from 24 since April 2025. Everything on this page counts only the 158 draws since that change.
Does the most overdue number actually turn up?
The longest-waiting number came out in the very next draw 7.0% of the time. Chance alone would put it at 7.1%.
This is the question the page invites, so here is the count rather than a claim. Across 158 Mega Millions draws, the number with the longest wait appeared in the very next draw 11 times — 7.0%. If overdue numbers were no different from any other, you would expect about 7.1%, since 5 of 70 numbers come out each draw. Those two figures are close. What you do with that is up to you.
Every number, longest wait first
