The jackpot for Friday's Mega Millions drawing has reached $306 million with a cash option of $191 million.
The winning numbers are 4,10,18, 28, 62, 7.
$4M Mega Millions ticket was sold at Quick Chek
If someone hits this evening's jackpot it would be the 13th largest prize in the 15 year history of Mega Millions.
No one has won the Mega Millions jackpot since lucky ticket holders in Michigan and Rhode Island split $42 million following the Oct. 13 drawing.
On Dec. 1, someone bought a ticket at a Quick Chek in Bayonne that matched five numbers but not the Mega Ball. The standard second-prize of $1 million quadrupled to $4 million because the buyer spent an extra $1 to exercise the Megaplier option.
A Mega Millions tickets costs $2. The odds of a ticket matching five numbers and the Mega Ball are 302,575,350 to 1. It's a 1 in 12,607,306 shot to win the second prize of at least $1 million by matching five numbers.
It became even more difficult to hit a Mega Millions jackpot beginning with the Oct. 31 drawing when the matrix of balls was altered. Before the changes to the game, it was a 258,890,850 to 1 shot to win the jackpot.
While the number of white balls available to be drawn decreased from 75 to 70, the number of Mega Ball numbers climbed to 25 from 15.
The twice-weekly drawing is held in 44 states as well as Washington D.C. and the U.S. Virgin Islands.
