Mega Millions jackpot at whopping $940 million for Friday drawing

Massive $940 million Mega Millions jackpot for Friday drawing

TALLAHASSEE - The Mega Millions jackpot for Friday night's drawing stands at a massive $940 million. It has a cash value of $483.5 million.

Friday's winning numbers were: 20, 63, 46, 59, 3 and 13.

The jackpot has been rolling since it was last won on Oct. 14, when tickets sold in California and Florida shared a $502 million prize.

In more than 20 years since the game began in 2002, there have been just three larger jackpots than Friday's estimated prize. The Mega Millions record remains at $1.537 billion, won by a single ticket in South Carolina on October 23, 2018. Two years ago, a $1.05 billion prize was won in Michigan on January 22, 2021, and there was that big $1.337 billion jackpot won in Illinois last July.

But know, the odds of winning the top prize are not in your favor - only about 1 in 303 million. Players have better odds of a smaller payoff, such as winning $1 million for matching five regular numbers but missing the Mega Ball.

If you plan to play in hopes of winning the Friday drawing, tickets are $2 each and must be purchased by 10 p.m.
