The Mega Millions jackpot climbed to an estimated $1.1 billion Friday night after no one matched the game’s six numbers, marking more than three months without a big winner.
The numbers drawn are: 3, 8, 31, 35, 44, 16.
The jackpot was increased after a drawing estimated at $977 million failed to produce a jackpot winner.
No one has won the game’s jackpot since December 8, and no one has taken home the jackpot in 30 consecutive draws. This keeps the jackpot growing slowly week after week.
The $1.1 billion prize is awarded to the sole winner who chooses to be paid via a 30-year annuity. Winners almost always choose cash payouts, with the next drawing on Tuesday night offering an estimated $525.8 million.
One lucky player has won a $1.1 billion jackpot, which will be the eighth largest prize in U.S. lottery history.
The annuity jackpot of Powerball, another American lottery game, has grown to $750 million, with cash payouts reaching $357.3 million. The next Powerball drawing is scheduled for Saturday night.
