Can you believe that March is almost here? You probably do, what with February being the shortest month and all. Okay, then. Can you believe that the Lotto Texas jackpot is still holding strong?
For several months, Lotto Texas’s jackpot managed to avoid a reset, and Saturday night’s results forestalled it for at least a few more nights. After the dust settled, a prize worth $48 million was left standing.
Meanwhile, Powerball’s jackpot climbed to $131 million.
