November started off pretty good for a couple of Mega Millions players in New York State.

The New York State Lottery announced that two "Big Money" winning tickets were sold in the state from Friday's Mega Millions drawing.

Each one of those tickets matched four out of five numbers and also had the Megaball which means they won the 3rd place prize of $10,000.

Friday's winning Mega Millions numbers were: 11-22-42-46-51 with a Megaball of 04.

No one claimed the grand prize on Friday so the jackpot for Tuesday' drawing is up to $303 million dollars. This would be one of the Top 5 largest jackpots ever won by a New York State resident if someone in New York were to win.
