No Christmas Mega Millions winner

PHILADELPHIA - December 25, 2010

Nobody won the jackpot for the $168 million prize on Christmas Eve.

The winning numbers were: 15,16, 27, 40, 52 and the Mega Ball was 16.

A total of 11 people matched all 5 numbers, but not the Mega Ball. Each of them won $250,000.

Earlier this year, a Los Angeles television reporter won the last 9-digit Mega Millions jackpot, a whopping $266 million.

The largest Mega Millions jackpot ever was $390 million on March 6, 2007, shared by winners in Dalton, Ga., and New Jersey.

Lottery officials said the odds of matching all six numbers drawn in Friday's multistate game is 1 in 175,711,536.

Tickets can be bought in Pa., N.J., and Delaware.
