A lucky player in Kentucky has won a $1 million prize after purchasing a winning Powerball ticket at a Kroger located on Starlite Drive in Owensboro. The winning numbers for Monday’s draw were 33, 35, 58, 61, and 69, with the Powerball being 25. The victorious ticket matched all the regular numbers but did not include the Powerball.
Additionally, another ticket sold in Louisville at Cox’s Smokers Outlet on Westport Road earned a $50,000 prize by matching four of the white balls.
The Kentucky Lottery recommendations for winners include signing the back of their tickets immediately, storing them in a secure location, and claiming the prize within 180 days of the draw. Those who hold winning tickets can claim their prizes at the lottery headquarters located at 1011 W. Main Street in Louisville. It is advised that they contact the Kentucky Lottery at 1-877-789-4532 to schedule an appointment for prize collection.
Despite these victories, the Powerball jackpot remains unclaimed with an estimated total of $216 million for the next drawing on Wednesday, July 9.
This news brings a wave of excitement, as it not only offers a life-changing opportunity for the ticket holders, but it also reignites hope for many others dreaming of winning in the next Powerball draw.
