Here are Friday's Mega Millions winning numbers
Lottery ticket holders who only match the five white balls can also take home cash prizes
The Mega Millions jackpot - for an estimated $1.28 billion, the third largest U.S. lottery prize in history - was drawn Friday night.
The winning numbers were: 13, 36, 45, 57, 67 and the gold Mega Ball was 14. The Megaplier was 2X.
The Mega Millions jackpot started building four months ago but its value has surged since it crossed the $1 billion milestone Tuesday.

Other winning tickets were found in Delaware, New Jersey and New York — each matched the five white balls and the Megaplier (which was 3X), taking home a $3 million prize each, according to the Mega Millions website.
