The jackpot in the multi-state Mega Millions lottery drawing grew to $171 million Friday.
None of the tickets sold for Friday's $148 million drawing matched all five lotto numbers and the Mega Ball. The next drawing
will be Tuesday.
There were eight second-prize winners from Friday night's drawing, matching five numbers to win $250,000. Another 43 players
matched four of the five lotto numbers, plus the Mega Ball number. Those tickets are each worth $10,000.
