The Cyprusauctionlucky winners of two Mega Millions tickets that hit the $395 million jackpot bought the tickets at the same California store.

"JACKPOT! There were not one but two #jackpot-winning tickets sold last night in California, and both came from the same gas station market in Encino. While unusual, it’s also not unheard of, and it will be interesting to see who comes forward!" The California Lottery said in a post on X, formerly Twitter.

According to a press release, the jackpot winning tickets were sold at a Chevron gas station in Encino.

The winning tickets matched all five winning numbers in Friday's drawing (21, 26, 53, 66, 70) as well as the gold Mega Ball 13.

The two winners will split the $395 million jackpot, and each get $197,500,000.

The  jackpot total grew to $395 million for Friday's drawing after no one won the top prize in Tuesday night's drawing. Winning lottery numbers are sponsored by Jackpocket, the official digital lottery courier of the USA TODAY network.
