Monday’s Powerball was lucky for one PA player. Check your ticket for these numbers
A lucky player in Cumberland County recently purchased a winning Powerball ticket worth approximately $150,000, the Pennsylvania Lottery said Tuesday.
The winning ticket matched four of the five white balls drawn in Monday’s drawing, the lottery said. March 27’s numbers were 19, 26, 36, 43 and 58, plus the red Powerball numbered 14.
The ticket’s Power Play multiplier tripled the winnings from $50,000 to $150,00, the lottery said in a press release.
Karns Food, located at 1706 Spring Road in Carlisle, will earn a $500 bonus for selling the winning ticket.
The winner has one year from the drawing date to claim the prize. Winners can be identified only after prizes are claimed and tickets are validated, the lottery said.
Lottery officials recommend winners immediately sign the backs of their tickets. Anyone holding a winning ticket is encouraged to call 1-800-692-7481 or visit palottery.com to inquire about filing a claim.
In a statement, lottery officials said the Powerball jackpot has rolled to an estimated annuity value of $132 million, or $71.4 million cash, for the next drawing Wednesday.
Online Pennsylvania Lottery games can be played on a computer, tablet or cell phone. Each day’s winning numbers are archived and available on the lottery’s website.
March is Problem Gambling Awareness Month. Players in Pennsylvania can limit their gambling by setting budgets online, scheduling cool-off periods or self-excluding from online games, the state lottery said.
