Mega Millions winning numbers for October 11 drawing: Jackpot rises to $169 million
View Date:2024-12-23 15:06:25
The Mega Millions jackpot keeps growing and reached an estimated $169 million for Tuesday's drawing after no one claimed the top prize on Friday.
The winning numbers were drawn just after 11 p.m. on Friday and we have them below.
In March, a lucky Mega Millions player from New Jersey won a whopping $1.1 billion. Although that prize has not been claimed yet the lottery says that it's not the first time a jackpot went unclaimed.
If someone won Friday night's $150 million jackpot, they could've taken home an estimated $71.0 million lump-sum payment, according to the lottery.
Check below for the winning numbers from the Friday, Oct. 11 Mega Millions drawing.

How to play the Mega Millions
In order to buy a ticket, you'll have to visit your local convenience store, gas station or grocery store − and in a handful of states, you can purchase tickets online.
To play, you will need to pick six numbers. Five numbers will be white balls ranging from 1 to 70. The gold Mega Ball is one number between 1 and 25.
If you believe the odds are against you, ask for a "Quick Pick" or an "Easy Pick," the computer will randomly generate the numbers for you.
Players can add the "Megaplier" for $1, which can increase non-grand prize winnings by two, three, four or five times. The Megaplier is drawn before the Mega Millions numbers on Tuesday and Friday.
There are 15 Megapiler balls in all:
- 2X, five balls
- 3X, six balls
- 4X, three balls
- 5X, one ball
