There was talk in the lottery world Wednesday night. Word on the street was that a lottery that grew to just over $1 billion is now halfway there. Now mind, that lottery’s reset was less than two months ago, and already, the jackpot is $500 million. Truly, Powerball was committed to not having the jackpot reset, and that commitment paid off!
Meanwhile, Lotto Texas was also committed to jackpot growth. The jackpot had a way to go before reaching $1 billion, let alone $100 million. However, that didn’t stop the jackpot from reaching $5.75 million.
