Pennsylvania Wins the Powerball Jackpot!
A single ticket sold in Pennsylvania has won the $2.138 billion Powerball jackpot, the largest in the lottery's history.
The winning ticket was sold at AJs Pizza located on Harts Run Road in Indiana.
The Pennsylvania Lottery announced the winning ticket Tuesday morning matching all five white ball numbers (9-22-57-67-68) and the red Powerball number (14).
The jackpot has been growing since August 6th, 2022, when it was reset to $20 million. No one had won the jackpot since then, leading to a record-breaking prize.
The winner has not yet come forward, but they have 1 year to claim their prize. They can choose to receive the prize as a lump sum or as an annuity over 29 years.
The Powerball lottery is played in 45 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. The odds of winning the jackpot are 1 in 292.2 million.
