Reuters reports that the drawing for the second-largest lottery prize in U.S. history, a cool $1 billion in the Mega Millions game, was held on Friday night as lotto fever continued to grip the U.S.
The lucky numbers drawn were 15, 23, 53, 65, 70 and the Mega Ball 7.
The winner can opt for an immediate cash payment of $565.6 million or receive the $1 billion prize over 29 years.
US lottery fans have another crack at a major lottery prize tonight (Saturday) when the Powerball will be drawn. This lottery holds the record for the largest U.S. lottery prize of $1.586 billion in 2016, and will hold a separate drawing on Saturday with the jackpot at $470 million, and a lump sum value of $268.6 million.
The 24 semi-weekly Mega Millions drawings have failed to produce a top winner since July 24, when an 11-member office pool in Santa Clara County, California, hit a $543 million jackpot.
If no one claims the big Friday win, lottery officials estimate the jackpot will grow to $1.6 billion, a new U.S. lottery record, for the Tuesday drawing.
