With no winners since June, the Mega Millions jackpot has soared to $800 million after no one matched all six numbers plus the gold Mega Ball during the Halloween draw.
That means a payout with a cash value of over $371 milliion is now up for grabs for the next drawing on Tuesday. However, lottery officials warn that it's been a while since a Mega Millions jackpot was won in the month of November.
"The last time was in 2016," Mega Millions said in a statement. "Since the game began in 2002, though, there have been 16 jackpots won during the month; the largest to date was a $326 million prize won in New York on November 4, 2014."
