Last month, a Powerball ticket sold at a convenience store in Los Angeles matched all numbers to win $1.08 billion, the third-largest Powerball jackpot. Tickets are sold in 45 states, the District of Columbia, and the US Virgin Islands. A jackpot in January was worth $1.348 billion. In Mega Millions history, four awarded jackpots have exceeded $1 billion, Mega Millions says, with the highest totaling $1.537 billion won in South Carolina in 2018. According to the Powerballs records, here are the 10 largest jackpots ever won: 2.04 billion from one winning ticket in California in November 2022. No one has matched all six numbers since April 18. Tuesday’s drawing was the 30th in a row to produce no big winner, Mega Millions said in a news release on its website. The cash payout for the jackpot would be $659.5 million, before applicable taxes.
