Powerball players can have fun this weekend trying their luck on a $350 million jackpot.
A winner on Saturday could claim the jackpot as a $350 million annuity or $156.5 million in cash.
Even though the jackpot remains up for grabs, players are taking home lots of other prizes. Wednesday’s Powerball drawing produced more than 14,000 winning tickets in North Carolina.
North Carolinians also help education programs in the state when they play Powerball. The current Powerball run has raised over $6.2 million for education in North Carolina.
