The first Powerball Xs & Os™ drawing was held on Sunday, Sept. 13, with more than 39,000 players winning prizes nationwide.
While Powerball Xs & Os™ offers set prize amounts for lower-tier prizes, payouts may be determined on a pari-mutuel basis under certain circumstances. For the Sept. 13 drawing, lower-tier prize payouts were determined on a pari-mutuel basis, reflecting ticket sales and the number of winners at each prize level.
The winning NFL team logos selected in the inaugural drawing were the Chicago Bears, Dallas Cowboys, Green Bay Packers, Kansas City Chiefs, Philadelphia Eagles, Pittsburgh Steelers, San Francisco 49ers and Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Note: Powerball Xs & Os results are randomly drawn and not based on, determined by, or dependent on the outcome of NFL games.

- Match 7/8: 19 winners, $500 each
- Match 6/8: 810 winners, $40 each
- Match 5/8: 7,117 winners, $34 each
