Since there were no grand prize winners for the Friday night drawing worth an estimated $113 million with a cash option of $77.2 million, the jackpot went unclaimed.
There were also no players who became instant millionaires. If players would have the Match 5, they would have won $1 million. Meanwhile, ticket holders who hit the Match 5 with the 4X Megaplier would have won $4 million.
The next Mega Millions drawing will be worth an estimated $126 million with a cash option of $86.1 million. The numbers will be drawn on Tuesday, March 8.
Aside from the lack of millionaires from the night, there were several other smaller wins. There were 20 Match 4 plus gold Mega Ball winners that snagged $10,000 each.
However, none of those players hit the Match 4 with the Megaplier and missed out on the chance to win a $40,000 prize. The other Mega Millions wins from the night ranged between $2 and $2,000.
The last Mega Millions jackpot was won in January when a ticketholder in California won $426 million with a cash value of $292.9 million.
Lottery winners have the option to receive their winnings through a one-time lump sum payment or an annuity. Those who chose the annuity receive one immediate payment that is followed by 29 annual payments that increase by 5% each year.
Mega Millions can be played in 45 states as well as the U.S. Virgin Islands and the District of Columbia. The odds in winning are 1 in 302.5 million.
