A woman walks past a sign showing a Powerball prize of $999 million, the largest jackpot winnings that the Powerball sign can display, with the actual Powerball jackpot estimated at $1.3 billion, outside a deli in Washington, DC, January 11, 2016. The jackpot for the US Powerball lottery rose to a whopping $1.3 billion (1.19 billion euros) on January 10, by far the largest in US history, after organizers said there was no winner in the weekend draw. The Powerball prize rocketed to $950 million on Saturday, fueling a frenzy of lotto ticket buying across the United States. Numbers were drawn and announced late Saturday at 10:59 pm (0359 GMT Sunday) -- but hours later lottery officials said there was no winner. AFP PHOTO / SAUL LOEBSAUL LOEB/AFP/Getty Images
