Lottery fever is spreading across Los Angeles and the nation as the Powerball Lottery reaches another historic high.
The winning numbers have been drawn on Saturday night — 19, 31, 40, 46, 57, 23 and the Power Play is 3X.
The winner of Saturday’s lottery would receive a cash payout of $410.2 million if they opted for that route, instead of the 30-year annuity prize.
On Saturday morning, a massive line of people gathered at Bluebird Liquor in Hawthorne, hoping to cash in on the estimated $825 million prize.
The Hawthorne store has a history of producing winning lottery tickets; there’s even a mini blue bird inside that you can rub for good luck.
Ticket sales around the country are pushing the jackpot even higher ahead of Saturday night’s drawing.
If a player wins the jackpot, it will rank as the second largest in Powerball history.
The lottery jackpot was last hit on Aug. 3 in Pennsylvania. That lucky player landed a $200 million win.
Since then, there have been 36 drawings with no grand prize winner.
If no one wins during Saturday night’s drawing, the amount will increase to around $1 billion — yes, billion — ahead of the next drawing on Monday.
The odds of winning this jackpot are 1 in 292 million, but customers at Blue Bird said they were feeling lucky. The Powerball drawing will take place at 7:59 p.m.
