Fifth-largest jackpot ever for Powerball

-

Lottery players had another shot at a giant jackpot Wednesday night with a $730 million Powerball prize on the line.

The Powerball jackpot is the fifth-largest ever, and it will come only a day after no one won the even-larger Mega Millions prize, which now stands at $970 million.

It’s the first time both lottery jackpots have topped $700 million. The biggest prize was a $1.58 billion Powerball jackpot won by three people in 2016.
