MADISON, WI (WSAU) — Once again the Badger State is cashing in on a massive lottery prize.
Wednesday’s $630 million Powerball jackpot will be split between winners in California and Wisconsin, with the Badger State’s winner being sold at an undisclosed retailer in Green Bay. It’s the largest major Powerball prize win in the state since March of 2019 when a West Allis man took home a $768 million prize, and the fourth Powerball or Mega Millions jackpot won by a Wisconsin resident in four years.
Lottery officials say the winning ticket was sold at Jackson Point CITGO on Packerland Drive. The store will receive a bounty from the lottery.
Wednesday’s winning numbers were 6, 14, 25, 33, 46, and the Powerball was 17.
The winner has 180 days from the day of the drawing to come forward, or the prize is forfeited. California’s winner was sold at a 7-Eleven store in Sacramento.
Over three million tickets won at least $4, which is the minimum prize for hitting just the Powerball or one white ball and the Powerball.
Before Wednesday. the last jackpot win came on October 4th when a single ticket cashed in $632 million.
