A whopping two million Lotto tickets are expected to be sold ahead of tomorrow's historic $50 million Powerball draw.
That's a ticket paper trail of about 36,000m based on a 12-line triple dip (Lotto, Powerball and Strike) 18cm ticket.
If the Sky Tower was lying down flat, that would also be the length of about 109 Sky Towers or 36km-long - a lazy drive from Auckland's Parnell to Drury.
Lotto fever is expected to intensify today and tomorrow as punters head out to buy tickets for the must-win Powerball prize.
