Check your tickets! Someone bought a Powerball ticket for Wednesday’s drawing that ended up winning $1 million. The winning ticket was bought at the 7-Eleven at 14116 Minnieville Road in Woodbridge.
The winning numbers for the March 23 Powerball drawing were 5-8-15-22-49, and the Powerball number was 25. This ticket matched the first five numbers and missed only the Powerball number.
Whoever has the ticket has 180 days from the drawing date to claim the prize. The Virginia Lottery advises that before doing anything else, the winner should immediately sign the back of the ticket to establish ownership. When the person is ready to claim the million-dollar prize, he or she should contact the Virginia Lottery.
The store that sold the winning ticket will receive a $10,000 bonus from the Virginia Lottery. This ticket was the only one nationwide to match the first five numbers in Wednesday’s drawing. No ticket matched all six numbers, so the jackpot for the Saturday, March 26, drawing has grown to an estimated $101 million.
Powerball drawings are held at 10:59 p.m. Wednesdays and Saturdays. Powerball drawings are broadcast on TV stations across Virginia and live on www.valottery.com and on the Lottery’s Facebook page. For more information on Powerball, visit www.powerball.com.Â
