The eight largest lottery prize in U.S. history was won on Sunday, after a player in Portland, Oregon, bought a winning Powerball ticket for the more than $1.3 billion jackpot.
The single ticket winner means that only one person got the six numbers right and will not have to split the total amount. The person, who has yet to claim the prize, will be able to choose a lump sum of $621 million (which will be subjected to taxes) or an annuity paid over 30 years, the first installment being granted immediately.
