The numbers for the $410 million Mega Millions jackpot were drawn Friday night.
The winning numbers are 6, 11, 29, 36, and 55. The mega ball was 21.
It’s unclear yet if any lucky winners had claimed the life-changing prize. Players have a Hail Mary shot of just 1 in 303 million to win.
Winners have the choice to accept the total $410 million in annual payments over the course of 29 years, increasing by 5% each year, or a lump sum cash prize of $2138 million.
Two people in Louisiana and New Jersey won prizes of $1 million in the Oct. 4 drawing. The jackpot soared from about $380 million to $410 in the last three days.
This is the third time this year that the jackpot has surpassed $400 million, according to Mega Millions.

A winner from Illinois claimed the immense prize on July 29.
Mega Millions losers will have another shot at a jackpot worth hundreds of millions of dollars Saturday, when the numbers for a $378 million Powerball will be drawn.
