More than 150,000 ticket holders in Missouri won more than $2.8 million in prizes in Saturday night’s record Powerball jackpot, including a $1 million ticket that was sold in south county.
Two tickets — including one sold at Sam’s Liquor & Convenience, 250 Kingston Drive — matched all five white-ball numbers to win the $1 million second-level prize. The second $1 million ticket was sold at Hartland Pit Stop, Route 3, in Doniphan.
A $1 million lottery ticket was sold last week at Telegraph Liquors, 5661 Telegraph Road in Oakville.
“We urge players to check their tickets closely,” May Scheve Reardon, executive director of the Missouri Lottery, stated in a news release. “There’s a chance you might have won one of the games eight other prizes.”
Reardon said one very important Missouri winner from this drawing is public education.
“We sold more than $26.3 million in Powerball tickets during this jackpot run, and that means approximately $10.2 million from Powerball sales alone will go to public education programs in Missouri,” she said.
The current jackpot run began March 30. The winning numbers from the May 18 drawing were: 10, 13, 14, 22, 52, and the Powerball number was 11. Players have exactly 180 days from the drawing, in this case Nov. 14, to claim these prizes.
Five other winning tickets matched four white-ball numbers and the Powerball to win the third-level prize of $10,000. One of those players used Power Play to turn the $10,000 prize into $40,000. Those tickets were sold at:
$40,000 — Beverly Hills Liquor & Grocery, 6714 Natural Bridge Road, Beverly Hills.
$10,000 — QuikTrip, 6312 S. Lindbergh Blvd.
$10,000 Fast Lane, 1425 Jungs Station Road, St. Peters.
$10,000 Break Time, 326 Ellis Blvd., Jefferson City;
$10,000 Schnucks Market, 3029 Highway K, O’Fallon.
