No, you didn’t win the second largest Powerball jackpot in history Wednesday. But if you matched at least one number, you at least won something.

One ticket sold in Des Plaines, Illinois, matched the winning numbers, but the purchaser still hasn’t claimed it.

The numbers for Friday’s drawing are 67, 45, 57, 36 and 13 with a Megaball of 14.

With the jackpot for Mega Millions hitting $830 million, lots of people are dreaming about winning.
