The numbers drawn in the nation's third largest jackpot were: 4, 8, 15, 25, 47 and mega ball number 42.
"Idaho is a very lucky place," Idaho Lottery Director Jeff Anderson said in a press release. "We are encouraging everyone who has played Mega Millions to check their tickets carefully for winners. We are also recommending all our players sign the back of their ticket prior to presenting it for payment. These tickets are bearer instruments and we want to ensure our winners protect their play."
Idaho lottery officials also said another Mega Millions ticket that matched all five numbers minus the mega ball number in Tuesday's night draw was sold in the state. That ticket is worth $250,000.
Another winner in Washington state will be sharing the $355 million jackpot, according to the Mega Millions website.
It is unknown if there are winners from other states to claim a share in the game's top jackpot prize.
