PARKERSBURG, PA — A $100,000 winning Powerball® with Power Play® ticket for the Monday, May 29 drawing was sold at a retailer in Chester County, declared the Pennsylvania Lottery.
The ticket matched four out of five white balls drawn- 21, 33, 35, 62, 64 – and the red Powerball® 24. With this combination, it won a prize of $100,000 (less applicable withholding). Had the $1 Power Play® option not been played, the ticket would still have fetched $50,000. The Power Play® multiplier of two further amplified the luck.
An additional feather in the cap for Turkey Hill at 10 East 1st Avenue, Parkesburg, with a $500 bonus for selling the winning ticket!
Pennsylvania Lottery Powerball® winners can only claim their prizes after tickets have been validated. This means that the true winners are unknown until this process has been completed. Once a winning ticket has been purchased at a Lottery retailer, it should immediately be signed on the back. Online winnings are automatically credited to a player’s account once their claim has gone through. Visit palottery.com for further information on filing a claim, as winners have one year from the drawing date to do so.
More than 30,500 other PA Lottery Powerball® tickets won prizes of various amounts in the drawing, including more than 7,400 tickets purchased with Power Play® and more than 3,700 tickets purchased with Double Play®. Players should check every ticket, every time.
The Powerball® jackpot rolled to an estimated annuity value of $239 million, or $121.5 million cash, for the next drawing tonight, May 31.
