Mega Millions: Mega Millions lottery jackpot increased to $80 millionThe jackpot in the multi-state Mega Millions lottery game grew to $80 million for Friday's drawing.
None of the tickets sold for Tuesday night's $66 million drawing matched all five lotto numbers and the Mega Ball.
There were six second-prize winners: 3 from California, 1 from Illinois, 1 from Massachusetts, and 1 from New Jersey. Each ticket matched all five lotto numbers but not the Mega Ball number to win $250,000.
The California second-prize winners will receive $136,838 each because California does not award the fixed prize amounts that the other Mega Millions states use.
Also, 26 players matched four of the five lotto numbers, plus the Mega Ball number. Those tickets are each worth $10,000, except the California tickets, which are worth $14,366 each.
The winning numbers were 7, 15, 24, 43 and 44. The Mega Ball number was 22.
The Texas Megaplier was 2.
