The jackpot for Saturday’s Powerball drawing climbed to $360 million after no one matched all six numbers in Wednesday night’s drawing.
One player from Georgia matched the first five numbers drawn – 24, 36, 50, 51 and 56 – but not the Power Ball of 22, and won $1 million. Lottery officials have not yet said where that ticket was purchased.
Six other players, in Arizona, Delaware, Florida, North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Tennessee, also matched the first five numbers but missed the Power Ball.
The Powerball jackpot has been growing since a player in Washington won a $90 million prize on Nov. 29.
The jackpot for Friday’s Mega Millions multi-state lottery is $49 million.
