(CNN) -- You were more likely to be struck by lightning or attacked by a shark -- maybe even at the same time -- than win Wednesday night's Powerball drawing.
But then again, you're not Mystery Ticket Holder in Lexington, SC.
Millions played, hoping against hope, defying the odds, dreaming the dream of winning the $400 million estimated jackpot.
But there was only one winning ticket that hit the jackpot.
One that spit in the face of the formidable 1-in-175,223,510 odds.
One that drew the winning numbers: 7, 10, 22, 32, 35 and Powerball 19.
For now, Paula Harper Bethea, the executive director of South Carolina Lottery, would only say the fourth-largest lottery prize in U.S. history will be claimed by a ticket that was sold in that 5.8-square-mile town, population 17,800.
We don't know if it's one person. Or maybe a group of coworkers who pooled their dollars together.
The biggest payload in American history was $665 million in the Mega Millions game in March 2012. The greatest Powerball jackpot was the $590.5 million won with a single ticket in Florida this past May.
But $400 million, with a cash value of $223 million, is still pretty sweet.
Someone's calling in sick this morning. That, you can bet on.
