Labor Day Powerball Jackpot Hits $1.1 Billion, One of the Largest Ever

The Powerball jackpot has risen to $1.1 billion for the Labor Day drawing, making it the fifth largest in history, after no winner was declared in Saturday's draw. The jackpot offers a cash option of $498.4 million before taxes, with nine tickets winning $1 million and some doubling their prizes with Power Play. The streak of consecutive drawings without a jackpot winner is approaching a record, and the game continues to attract players across multiple states.
