As the clock ticks closer to the drawing, the excitement is palpable, with hopeful players lining up to purchase their tickets, each holding a sliver of a dream.

For those who manage to beat the astronomical odds, this jackpot offers a choice between a staggering annuity option, paid out over 29 years, or an immediate cash option.

To participate in this historic drawing, players simply select five white ball numbers from 1 to 69 and one red Powerball number from 1 to 26.

For an extra dollar, the Power Play option can multiply non-jackpot winnings, adding another layer of excitement to the game. Tickets are available at authorized retailers across Powerball participating states, including Michigan, up until an hour or two before the drawing, depending on state regulations.

The Powerball drawing takes place every Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday at 10:59 p.m.
