Powerball jackpot jumps to $905 million after no winners in Saturday’s drawing - KCBD

A ticket sold in Texas did win $2 million for matching five numbers plus the Power Play. Four other tickets nationwide secured $1 million each. Many Lubbock residents likely checked their tickets, hoping for a win after grabbing one at their local gas station on 19th Street.

This massive sum means a single winner could drastically change their life and potentially impact our local economy. Imagine what $905 million could do for a family living near Tech Terrace or a business owner in the Depot District, enough to buy up a whole block of prime real estate. The cash option alone is more than four times the annual budget of Texas Tech University.
