Even with no fans in the arena, the Edmonton Oilers 50/50 jackpot has hit another massive milestone, reaching $5 million in just five hours.
Ticket sales open up at 9 am MT on game days, and stay open until 10:30 pm, meaning there’s no knowing how high the jackpot has yet to reach before the day is done.
During Game 2 of the series, the 50/50 jackpot broke a previous record, by hitting $3 million dollars on game day.
This time, however, the number seems to keep increasing, and by 2:30 MT, it has reached $5,417,130.
