Powerball Jackpot Hits $1.3 Billion After No Labor Day Winner
['Diana Beasley']
92.5 MAXIMA
The Powerball jackpot shot up to $1.3 billion after nobody won Monday's Labor Day drawing.
The winning tickets were bought at stores in nine states - California, Florida, Kentucky, Massachusetts, Michigan, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania and Virginia.
That's getting close to the record of 42 drawings, which ended last April when someone in Oregon won $1.326 billion.
The next biggest were the $1.765 billion prize from October 2023 and the $1.586 billion split between three winners in early 2016.
While you have a 1 in 25 shot at winning something, hitting the jackpot is super rare at 1 in 292 million.
