The Mega Millions jackpot surged to over $1 billion after no winner was declared on Friday night's drawing.
The numbers drawn late Friday night were: 5, 10, 28, 52, 63 and gold Mega Ball 18.
The prize now has a cash value of $527.9 million, offered as a one-time, lump-sum payment. Alternately, the winnings can be paid out as one immediate payment followed by 29 annual payments.
