FORT MYERS, Fla. — The Mega Millions has yet to gain a winner while crossing over $1.2 billion - making it the second largest jackpot ever.

The high jackpot amount has caused many people to buy a ticket from their local store. People have been buying different numbers of tickets - from one to, what Fox 4 saw, 20, in hopes that they will buy the winning ticket.

However, the chances of winning - one in 302 million - could also be discouraging for some potential buyers.

If you're looking for a place to see the winning numbers, tune in to Fox 4 at 11 p.m. or click Watch Now on Fox 4's website.
