No winning ticket emerged in Friday’s drawing, pushing the prize to one of the game’s largest amounts for the upcoming Tuesday draw

No winning ticket emerged after Friday night’s Mega Millions jackpot drawing, extending the streak to 28 consecutive drawings without a winner and pushing the grand prize to an estimated $875 million for the next draw on Tuesday.

The winning numbers drawn for Friday’s jackpot were: 13, 25, 50, 51, 66, and the gold Mega Ball 6.

With no jackpot winner, the cash value of Friday night’s prize, initially at $385.1 million, remains intact, with the possibility of a one-time lump-sum payment or 29 annual payments.

The potential $875 million grand prize would mark the fifth-largest jackpot in the history of the Mega Millions game, following four previous billion-dollar winners.

The last time the jackpot was claimed was on December 8.

The largest jackpot ever won was a staggering $1.6 billion prize claimed on August 8, 2023, in Neptune Beach, Florida.

The odds of winning the jackpot are 1 in 302,575,350, according to Mega Millions.

Mega Millions is available in 45 states, Washington, D.C., and the U.S. Virgin Islands, with tickets priced at $2 each.
