Earlier this week, the Powerball Lottery underwent some changes. They have added a new range of numbers to pick from and have increased how high their Power Play number can go. Now it's possible to multiply your winnings by ten times. Just last month, the Powerball jackpot grew to it's third highest amount ever at $310 million and was picked up by a lottery player in Michigan.

Already this year, the Wyoming Lottery has given away five Cowboy Draw jackpots since their own game started on March 15. The fifth jackpot had grown over $1 million when it was picked up by a WyoLotto player in Casper. Just this week, three Cowboy Draw tickets purchase in Cheyenne were worth $1,000 each. The Wyoming Lottery tickets were bought at Big D, Loaf 'N Jug and Kum & Go.
