It's the lottery game that doesn't get as much attention as the Powerball game does. With a jackpot close to $400-million on Tuesday, that will probably change. It's the multi-state Mega Millions game and just like the Powerball when there is no big winner the jackpot amount keeps growing larger and larger.

The Mega Milllions drawing on Friday was an estimated $363 million. There was no big winner for the jackpot however there were tickets sold in Louisiana that did claim some significant cash prizes.

Here are Friday's Mega Millions Numbers :11-14-54-57-63- Mega Ball 11

The next time the ping pong balls drop the estimated top prize in the game will be an estimated $390 million. That is the annuity amount. Should you win and decide on a one time cash payout then you'd have to live with only claiming $256.4 million dollars.

The Mega Millions game is played in Louisiana and just about every other state in the union. The only exceptions are Mississippi, Alabama, Nevada, and Utah.  In order to win the top prize in the drawing a player must match the five numbers drawn at random. They must also match the "Mega Ball".

There are other ways to win money with the Mega Millions game. You could have a winning ticket even if you did not match for the jackpot. Drawings in the Mega Millions game are held every Tuesday and Friday night at approximately 10 PM. Tickets must be purchased at least 15 minutes before the drawing occurs. That means you'll need to have your numbers chosen and your ticket paid for by 9:45 PM Tuesday night.

You must be 21 years of age or older to participate in lottery contest. If you or someone you know has a gambling problem help is available by calling 1-877-770-7867. Please play this game and all lottery games responsibly.
