The Mega Millions jackpot surged to over $1 billion after no winner was declared on Friday night's drawing.
The numbers drawn late Friday night were: 5, 10, 28, 52, 63 and gold Mega Ball 18.
The prize now has a cash value of $527.9 million, offered as a one-time, lump-sum payment. Alternately, the winnings can be paid out as one immediate payment followed by 29 annual payments.
Friday's drawing happened at 11 p.m. and is the 29th consecutive drawing with no jackpot winner. The next drawing takes place Tuesday, Aug. 1 at 11 p.m.
The largest prize was $1.537 billion won in South Carolina in October 2018.
There have been 29 consecutive drawings without jackpot winners. The last jackpot was won on April 18.
