Behind the Minnesota lottery glitch for the $2.04 billion Powerball jackpot
/
The winning $2.04 billion Powerball ticket was sold at an Exxon gas station in Los Angeles, California.
But the historic Powerball results came after a nail-biting and bizarre overnight delay.
The draw for the biggest lottery prize in U.S. history was thrown into chaos when millions of Americans, expecting to watch the drawing, saw that a technical problem delayed the results.
It was later revealed the delay was due to Minnesota’s sales verification system crashing.
