Mega Millions players were hoping for Christmas to come a few days early Friday, as the drawing was held for an estimated $305 million jackpot.
The winning numbers selected in Friday night's drawing were 10, 13, 61, 62 and 70, with the Mega ball number 5 and Megaplier 3X.
But it appeared that no winners were located for the top prize, so the jackpot for the next drawing on Tuesday, Christmas Night, was estimated at $321 million, with a cash option of $193.7 million, according to the official Mega Millions website.
Friday's drawing did produce a Match 5 winner in Texas, according to the website. That means the player won $1 million by matching the five main numbers but not the Mega ball.
The hottest stories ripped from the headlines, from crime to courts, legal and scandal.
