Nobody took home the estimated $740 million Mega Millions jackpot in Friday night's drawings, but there were several big winners, including one in Texas.
The winning numbers drawn on Friday were 6, 23, 41, 59 and 63 with a Mega ball of 25. The Megaplier was 2X.
Tickets purchased in California, Florida, Illinois, New Hampshire and Texas matched all five white balls to win $1 million, while another player in Ohio matched all five white balls and had the optional Megaplier to win $2 million.
The winning Texas ticket was sold at a Stripes Store in Lamesa, which is about 60 miles south of Lubbock.
