Powerball Winning Numbers
Along with Mega Millions, the Powerball lottery is the other major multi-state lotto game in the USA. Power Ball is operated by the Multi-State Lottery Association (MUSL), which is an alliance of lottery commissions from twenty nine US states, the District of Columbia as well as the U.S. Virgin Islands. MUSL is licensed as the monopoly provider of multi state lotteries in these states.
The forerunner to the Powerball lottery was known as “Lotto America” which commenced operations in 1988. Four years later in 1992 “Lotto America” was re-launched and given the name Powerball, a name that has remained ever since.
The Powerball lottery has paid out some of the biggest lotto jackpots the world has ever seen. Here is a selection of some of these incredible wins:
• In February 2006 a jackpot of $365 million was won by a single ticket holder from the US state of Nebraska. To date, this is the biggest Power Ball lottery jackpot paid out.
• In 2005, a Powerball jackpot of $340 million was scooped by a family from Oregon, USA.
• On Christmas Day 2002 a Powerball jackpot of $314 million was won by a resident of West Virginia.
• In August 2007 a retired mechanic from Ohio collected the winning Power Ball jackpot of $314 million.
