Not to be outdone, Mega Millions will also hold a drawing on Friday for its $306 million top prize.

Winning both $300 million prizes this weekend is possible but by a longshot. The odds of winning both Powerball and Mega Millions on back-to-back nights are 1 in 75 quadrillion, which holds 15 zeros in the figure.
