Sunday, August 17, 2008 posted 12:47 PM EDT

The grand prize in the Mega Millions multistate lottery has grown to $81 million.

The rollover occurred because no player matched all the winning numbers from Friday night's $70 million drawing. The next Mega Millions drawing will be Tuesday night.

Although there was no grand prize winner, five players, none in Michigan, won second prizes of $250,000 apiece. Another 26 players, including three in Michigan, won third prizes of $10,000 apiece.

The winning numbers were: 8, 23, 29, 30, and 53. The Mega Ball number was seven.
