Plenty of people were buying their Powerball tickets while they still could before 9 PM Wednesday night.
That Powerball Jackpot is worth $580 million, that's the second–largest jackpot in U.S. history.
Lottery officials say tickets sold Wednesday at a rate of 160,000 a minute nationwide.
The odds of matching 6 winning Powerball numbers are about 1 in 175 million, but that's not stopping millions of people from taking a chance....including many right here in North Mankato who want to dream big.
Phil Rosen of North Mankato says, "The first thing that comes to mind is getting rid of all our bills and trying to keep a nice little nest–egg for your retirement. So many things you can imagine having."
Jack Lindsay of Mankato says "I'm hoping I become a multi–millionaire and might buy a nightclub. That's my dream, have a big night club here in Mankato."
There have been 16 consecutive drawings without a winner, but Powerball officials say they now think there's a 75 percent chance someone will hold the winning numbers this time.
Some experts say if one ticket hits the right numbers, chances are good that there will be other winners.
