Winning Powerball ticket sold in Ventura County
The holiday season just got brighter for someone in the Southland holding a Powerball ticket worth $2,323,527! The ticket was purchased for last night’s draw. No one hit the Saturday, December 20, super-big $1.5 billion jackpot. However, a ticket bought at Wright’s Market, 2691 Ventura Blvd. in Oxnard, had five of the winning numbers. It missed only the Powerball, according to the California Lottery.
Here are all of the winning digits: 4, 5, 28, 52, 69, and the Powerball 20. The jackpot rolled over to $1.6 billion … that is the fourth largest prize in the game’s history. Also, there have been 45 draws since the jackpot was hit. The next draw is Monday, December 22.
