112912 powerball

POWERBALL JACKPOT--November 28, 2012 DeKalb County: Ron and Tammy Josephson took a walk along the 4000 block of Peachtree Road in Brookhaven Wednesday, Nov. 28, 2012 where the Georgia Lottery billboard prominently displayed a half billion dollar prize for Wednesday night’s drawing. Wednesday night’s Powerball jackpot is the largest in the multi-state game’s history, but falls short of the Mega Millions record of $646 million set earlier this year on March 30. That jackpot was split by players in Kansas, Illinois and Maryland. The Powerball drawing can be seen live just before the Channel 2 Action News Nightbeat at 11 p.m. JOHN SPINK / JSPINK@AJC.COM
