The ticket matched all five of the white ball winning numbers but not the Powerball, winning the game’s second prize of $1 million. The ticket was sold at 101 Lotto, on Fort Campbell Boulevard in Oak Grove. The store will receive at $10,000 selling bonus.
A member of the winner’s family first checked the ticket Sunday morning after the drawing, and discovered the win.
“At first I thought they were kidding, but the five numbers on the ticket matched up,” the family member said. “We just couldn’t believe it,” they said.
The winner hopes to use some of the funds for travel, and then plans to put the rest of it to work.
“This is a life-changing event, and I plan on using this wisely,” the winner said.
