The jackpot in the multi-state Mega Millions lottery drawing grew to $47 million Friday.
None of the tickets sold for Friday night's $36 million drawing matched all five lotto numbers and the Mega Ball. The next
drawing will be Tuesday.
There were 12 second-prize winners from Friday night's drawing, matching five numbers to win $250,000. One of those tickets
was sold in Illinois -- at a service station in the Chicago suburb of Maywood. Another 23 players, including one from Illinois,
matched four of the five lotto numbers, plus the Mega Ball number. Those tickets are each worth $10,000.
The winning numbers from Friday night's drawing were: five, nine, 12, 33 and 40. The Mega Ball number was 27.
