$180.1 MILLION POWERBALL JACKPOT WON IN MINNESOTA!
May 4, 2008
One lucky ticket in Minnesota matched all 6 numbers Saturday and walked away with the $180.1 million jackpot. The holder of the winning ticket will now have to decide to either take the 29-year, 30-installment annuity, or the one time cash “lump sum” amount of $88,020,951.
Other big winners included 4 tickets that matched all 5 white ball numbers with the Power Play option for a $600,000 cash win each. These lucky tickets were sold in Louisiana (1), New Hampshire (1), and Pennsylvania (2). Nine other tickets in Arizona (1), Colorado (1), Indiana (1), Kansas (1), Missouri (1), Oregon (1), and Pennsylvania (3) had all 5 white ball numbers correct for $200,000 each. There were a total of 902,481 additional winning tickets in America’s Game Saturday evening. Those winners won prizes totaling $10,186,328.
The numbers drawn were 2, 28, 36, 42, 46 and the Powerball was 40. The Power Play multiplier was 3.
Additional major winners Saturday evening included thirty-nine tickets that matched 4 white ball numbers plus the Powerball and won $10,000. Seven additional players not only matched 4+1, but also purchased the Power Play option, multiplying their prize by 3 for a total win of $30,000!
A total of 149,700 winning Powerball plays were multiplied by 3 Saturday evening. Winners were able to do so by purchasing the Power Play option for one dollar. With Power Play you can multiply your winnings, except for the jackpot, from 2 to 5 times. At the beginning of each drawing a wheel is spun to select that night’s multiplier.
Players purchased $40,816,335 in Powerball and Power Play tickets between Thursday and Saturday night.
The jackpot for Wednesday, May 7th will be $15 million.
