Mega Millions drew the numbers for a jackpot worth an estimated $1.22 billion late Friday but it was not immediately clear if there was a big winner. The numbers were 3, 7, 37, 49, 55 and the gold Mega Ball 6.

The winning ticket holder can choose between two payout options: a one-time lump sum or 30 annual payments in graduated installments.
