Powerball

A single ticket sold in California won a Powerball jackpot worth $2.04 billion dollars, after taxes $997.6 million cash. Can you imagine what that feels like for the lucky winner?

We like to joke on the air about winning a big jackpot and you will never hear from or see us again, and while that may or may not be true, can you imagine what you would do with an almost $2 Billion lottery payout? It boggles the mind. Let's see how much you would really get to take home?

A growing Powerball jackpot, estimated at $1.2 billion is getting people excited about the lottery.

Hurry to the corner store and get your Powerball ticket, because tonight's Powerball Jackpot drawing is already at $424 Million.

A growing Powerball jackpot, estimated at $610 million is getting people excited about winning some serious money.

It's hard to imagine having a winning lottery ticket and not knowing it, but we do report these stories from time to time. That's right, a $1 million Powerball® ticket matching five numbers drawn for the Jan. 13 drawing was purchased at ALTX Management, located at 3630 Interstate 35 S., in Waco, it's a 1 million dollar winner but the prize has never been claimed. The ticket matched all five first

Can you imagine having a ticket in your pocket worth $1 Million, then losing it? Someone out there purchased a quick pick in El Paso back in January and either lost it or forgot about it and now, that winning million-dollar ticket is about to expire. Chances are slim that anyone around here made that purchase but you never know. If you were in El Paso back in January... just saying.

Are you one of those "Fair-Weather Lottery Fans" like me? When that jackpot grows to ridiculous proportions, that's when little old me starts paying attention again. I still have a huge problem though, actually remembering to go play!

Three grand prize winning tickets were sold in the Powerball drawing last night. Those were in Memphis, Florida, and California. There were also a couple of big winners in Arkansas as well.

The Powerball is huge! Wednesday drawing is estimated at 1.4 billion and we know that will go up even more by tomorrow night. The good news is that even if you don't win the billion you could still become a millionaire. Hey, I'd be good with that!

A redesigned Powerball game is debuting in Texas this October.

How lucky do you feel? Fans of the multi-state Powerball game have even more reasons to play this weekend. The estimated annuitized jackpot for Saturday night jumped to $380 million today.
