With no Mega Millions jackpot winner hit in Friday night’s drawing, the estimated top prize for Tuesday soared to an estimated $850 million as lottery officials announced two $1 million second-prize winning tickets were sold in New Jersey.
Of the eight total second-prize winning tickets, others were sold in California, Florida, Michigan, New York, Ohio and Wisconsin. Officials have not announced the specific locations in New Jersey where the two winners were sold.
The winning numbers drawn Friday night were: 3, 11, 12, 38 and 43. The Mega Ball drawn was 15 with a Megaplier of 4X.
The estimated $850 million jackpot would be the third largest prize in U.S. lottery history, according to Mega Millions officials.
The last lottery player to win the top Mega Millions jackpot was Sept. 15, 2020, with a $120 million ticket sold in Wisconsin. Last year, two top jackpots were hit in New Jersey.
