No Big Winners In Mega Millions Drawing, Jackpot Nears $300M

CHICAGO (STMW) - It would have been a heck of a way to ring in the new year, but no one playing the Mega Millions multi-state lottery Friday night matched all six numbers for the estimated $242 million grand prize.

The estimated grand prize for the next drawing, to be held on Tuesday night, is $290 million, according to the Illinois Lottery.

The winning numbers in Friday night's drawing were: 10 - 12 - 13 - 35 and 56, and the Mega Ball number was 09.

Two Illinois players -- one each in the downstate towns of Effingham and Kansas -- matched the first five numbers and will each receive $250,000, according to the Illinois Lottery.
