With no winner in months, the jackpot is up to $627 million for Friday night’s drawing.

Instead of taking that amount over 30 years, you could take the cash option of $309.1 million, which is still a pretty good payday.
Earlier this week, two people in South Carolina matched all five numbers, but not the Mega Ball. Even though they didn’t get the big prize, one of them won $1 million and the other won $2 million.

You can catch both drawings, LIVE on Channel 2 just before WSB Tonight at 11 p.m.
