People in Michigan must be feeling lucky as they’ve bought over two million Powerball tickets — on Monday alone.
That equates to over 175,000 tickets being sold an hour.
As of 6 p.m. Monday 2.1 million tickets had been sold in the state, according to the Michigan Lottery.
Wednesday’s Powerball jackpot is worth at least $1.4 billion.
The pot is now more than twice the size of the largest jackpot win for any lottery game in history.
The size of the jackpot may grow even more before Wednesday’s drawing.
