In the 934 Mega Millions drawings from October 31, 2017 to October 9, 2026, 61 came up 66 times as one of the five white balls — 7.1% of draws. Pure chance predicts about 66.7 (5 of 70 balls each draw), so it is running 0.7 below that, in the middle of the pack (rank 38 of 70). In the last 100 draws it appeared 6 times.

Every draw is random and independent. How often a number came up in the past doesn't make it more or less likely next time — the odds of the jackpot stay 1 in 290.5 million for every ticket. Why we say so.
