A single ticket sold in Pennsylvania won the multimillion-dollar Powerball jackpot in Saturday’s drawing, lottery officials said.
The ticket matched all five white balls and the Powerball to win an estimated $456.7 million jackpot, with $273.9 million cash value, PennLive.com reported.
The winner has the choice of taking the larger pot amount over the span of 29 years or the cash amount for a one-time, lump-sum payment.
With no winner for 19 straight drawings, this jackpot is one of the biggest in lottery history.
The odds of winning are a staggering 1 in 292 million.
The winning numbers were 22, 57, 59, 60, 66 and Powerball 7.
