Is Powerball just going to rot away?Reply
Fun fact: your odds of winning either of the big jackpots are only slightly better than your odds of being struck by lightning on the day of the drawing.

Who cares? Most people don't play until the jackpots reach a billion anyway.

Virginia lottery jackpot winners can stay anonymous, starting in JulyReply
And the funny thing is PB MM minimum jackpots are $40 million. But they did the right thing IMHO by passing this.
