No one drew all six numbers in Tuesday's Mega Millions lottery, meaning Friday's will be the largest in the history of the game

If you bought a Mega Millions lottery ticket for Tuesday's drawing, the bad news is that no one hit all six numbers, meaning that the estimated jackpot for Friday's drawing will grow to a record $476 million, City News Service reports.

The good news is 47 tickets were sold with five numbers, including nine in California; each is worth $308,573. (None were sold in our town, however.)

The other good news is that you still have a chance to win! Here's a list of a few places locally where you can buy a Mega Millions ticket for Friday's drawing.
