The jackpot for the next Mega Millions drawing Friday will grow to $200 million after no players matched all six numbers in Tuesday night’s game.
The winning numbers in Tuesday evening’s drawing of the Mega Millions game for a jackpot of $170 million were: 17-31-34-45-51, Mega Ball: 24.
The multi-state game jackpot has been steadily growing since Sept. 1, when a Georgia man matched all the numbers and won $12 million, according to a report in The Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
The largest payout so far has been a $390 million jackpot shared by a New Jersey couple from Cape May County and a truck driver in Georgia in 2007.
