All over the country, Mega Millions players are hoping to turn the Tuesday before Thanksgiving into their first day as brand new millionaires.

And if you happen to be one of them, then you might want to tune in at 11 p.m. ET, when the draw for tonight's $25 million jackpot is set to take place at the studios of WSB-TV, Atlanta's ABC affiliate.

If you do, in fact, hit the jackpot and want to take home every last penny, the total prize will be paid out to you in annual installments over a 29-year period. Otherwise, you also have the option of an immediate lump sum payout of "only" about $15 million.

The lottery's winning numbers from the last drawing on Nov. 20 were 9, 12, 29, 37, 67; the Mega Ball number was 15; and the Megaplier number was 2, according to the game's official website. The estimated jackpot had been $20 million, but no one matched the winning Mega Millions numbers on that day.

The Friday drawing did, however, produce two new millionaires: The multistate lottery reported that a pair of lucky players matched five numbers and thus took home $1 million each. With the Megaplier option, which is used in some states and allows players to increase non-jackpot prize winnings by 2, 3, 4 or 5 times, that prize could have even been as high as $2 million this time around.

Mega Millions drawings take place every Tuesday and Friday, and the draw entry closes at 10:45 p.m. ET. Tickets for the game are sold in 43 states, the District of Columbia and the U.S. Virgin Islands -- a total of 45 jurisdictions. The odds of winning any prize are about 1 in 15, but your chances of hitting the jackpot are only about 1 in 259 million.
