Billion-dollar Powerball jackpot fever hits western Washington ahead of Labor Day

A billion-dollar prize is on the line this Labor Day. Enough money that you would never have to labor again.

Powerball ticket sales are skyrocketing in Washington and across the country. If there is just one winner, they could take the billion-dollar prize in 30 payments or one lump sum of $453 million.

The odds of matching all six numbers, of course, are daunting: 1 in 292.2 million

But local players say they already have plans for the big payout.
