EAST PROVIDENCE, R.I. (WPRI) — The bad news is that you didn't win the Mega Millions jackpot, but the good news is that no one else did either. The jackpot has grown to an estimated $1.35 billion for Friday's drawing, with a cash option of $707.9 million. The next drawing falls on Friday the 13th, which is not always unlucky. The last time the Mega Millions jackpot was hit on that date was in Rhode Island. On Friday, Oct. 13, 2017, a ticket sold at Martin's Petroleum in East Providence matched all five numbers and the mega number.
