“Tonight’s Powerball jackpot is a full tank of unleaded gas and a sheet of plywood”

May 2021 saw gas shortages and price increases. The price of lumber also shot up much higher.
   
“Tonight’s Powerball jackpot is a full tank of unleaded gas and a sheet of plywood” was posted on Facebook  by Not Kenny Rogers on May 12, 2021.
 
“The Powerball Jackpot is now up to a 24 pack of Charmin” is a related joke.
