 After No Winner Claimed Tuesday’s Prize

 

The Mega Millions jackpot has reached an estimated $1.35 billion – the second-largest in the lottery’s history – after no winner snagged the big prize in Tuesday night’s drawing, officials said, CNN reports.

That’s a boost from Tuesday’s jackpot of $1.1 billion, which saw no tickets match all six winning numbers of 7, 13, 14, 15, 18 and the Mega Ball 9.

While no ticket matched the jackpot drawing, 16 won the game’s second-tier prize taking home up to $3 million.

The drawing for the $1.35 billion prize, roughly $707.9 million in cash, is scheduled for Friday night. If won, it would be second only to a $1.537 billion Mega Millions jackpot won in South Carolina in 2018, the lottery said.
