August 7, 2013
Eleven weeks after reaching a record jackpot of $590.5 million, the Powerball Lottery is at it again with a $425 million prize in Wednesday night’s drawing, the fourth largest jackpot ever in U.S. history.
“The noise of a Powerball jackpot climbing to $425 million will grab people’s attention in every city and town across the country and bring them out to play,” said Tom Romero, chairman of the Multi-State Lottery Association’s Powerball Group.
The Powerball lottery is played in 45 states, including Florida. Tonight’s drawing is set for 9:59 p.m.
