The Mega Millions jackpot will push past $400 million on Friday, making it the sixth-highest lottery in the game's history. Offering $422 million, with a cash buyout of $254 million, no one matched all six numbers drawn Tuesday.

It wasn't a night of total loss, however, as three tickets matched five white balls — a $1 million win. The tickets were sold in Florida, New Jersey and Oklahoma.

Hoping to buy a winning ticket? You might be in luck as there was a total of 1,248,999 winning tickets at all prize levels in the July 17 drawing, according to Mega Millions. The next drawing will be held at Friday at 11 p.m.
