The Mega Millions jackpot for Tuesday night's draw has grown to $390 million. If there is no Mega Millions jackpot winner on Tuesday, the jackpot for Friday's drawing will grow to an estimated $415 million.

"The current Mega Millions jackpot is tied for fourth among all-time Mega Millions jackpots. The largest Mega Millions jackpot, $656 million, was won in 2012," said Lottery spokesman Chuck Baumann.

Oregon Lottery officials are still waiting for the state's first Mega Millions jackpot winner.

Oregon Mega Millions players have won more than $8.8 million in prizes since Mega Millions was first offered in Oregon in March 2010.
