Read that some places right over state lines from states who don't allow Powerball, lines were miles long and hours of waiting... Been 3.5 hours since the drawing and the site still shows results pending... Not surprising with about a billion dollars in ticket sales :ep:th I have seen online on NON lottery reporting, that there has been at least one winning ticket sold.

I'm gonna guess the pot was won... Estimate 3 winners... and the final value at ~$1,585,000,000.00. So basically $527 million each :D =D So if more than 2 winners, the pot will NOT be the largest to an individual...

From Wiki: "On May 18, 2013, the largest jackpot in the game's history, an annuity of approximately $590.5 million ($600 million today), was won by a single ticket sold in Zephyrhills, Florida to 84 year old Gloria C. MacKenzie.[2] MacKenzie chose the cash option of approximately $370.8 million, before Federal withholding, with no state income tax withholding by Florida.[2]" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Powerball

You are right, the pot was won. One winner in CA, one in TN, and one in FL. It wasn't me.
