POWERBALL DRAWING TONIGHT-PKG

SCRIPT:

WHEN PLAYERS ARE LINING UP IN THE DUSTY ARIZONA DESERT FOR AN HOUR AND

A HALF, JUST TO BUY A LOTTERY TICKET, YOU KNOW IT'S BIG.

MOST OF THEM CAME ACROSS THE BORDER FROM CALIFORNIA, WHICH IS NOT ONE

OF THE 42 STATES, DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA, OR THE U-S VIRGIN ISLANDS THAT PLAY

THE GAME.

THIS MORNING. TICKETS SALES ARE THROUGH THE ROOF: THEY'RE SELLING AT

AN UNBELIEVABLE 105-THOUSAND TICKETS PER MINUTE.

BUT LET'S FACE IT, MOST PLAYERS, WILL BE LOSERS.

"The odds of winning Powerball are exactly. 1 in 175,2442,000."

ABC'S RYAN OWENS SPOKE TO S-M-U MATH PROFESSOR SCOTT NORRIS.

Owens: with so many people playing this time around, does it hurt my odds?

Scott Norris: Actually no, your odds of being a winner are still the same.

With so many people playing, it does mean you are more likely to split the

jackpot.

HOW DID THE JACKPOT GET SO BIG?

NOBODY HAS WON IT ALL SINCE OCTOBER SIXTH, THAT'S 16 DRAWINGS.

AND THAT HAS LOTTERY OFFICIALS SAYING THERE'S ABOUT A 60 PERCENT

CHANCE THAT SOMEONE WILL HIT IT BIG TONIGHT.

SO DOES ANYONE HAVE AN ADVANTAGE?

WELL, INDIANA HAS HAD 38 POWERBALL WINNERS. MISSOURI FOLLOWS WITH 26

.

THE MOST TICKETS ARE SOLD IN FLORIDA, WHICH HAS SEEN FOUR WINNERS IN

JUST THE PAST THREE YEARS.

ADVISORS ALWAYS SAY WINNERS SHOULD TAKE A LUMP SUM PAYMENT.

FOR A SINGLE WINNER AT THIS POINT, THAT WOULD MEAN WALKING AWAY WITH
