ENCINO, Calif. -- The latest Mega Millions drawing proved anything is possible after two tickets purchased at the same Southern California gas station each hit the $395 million jackpot.

California Lottery officials announced Saturday that both tickets were sold at a Chevron station at 18081 Ventura Boulevard in Encino, near the intersection of Ventura and Lindley Avenue.

The tickets matched all six numbers in Friday night's drawing: 21, 26, 53, 66, 70 and the gold Mega Ball 13.

The winners will split the $395 million prize, which comes out to $197.5 million in installments or a lump sum cash payment of $94.3 million before taxes.

The next Mega Millions drawing on Tuesday will be $20 million.
