Fredericksburg Store Sells Half of Historic $1.78 Billion Powerball Jackpot
A convenience store in Fredericksburg, Texas, has sold one of two winning tickets for the second-largest Powerball jackpot in history, a staggering $1.787 billion. The monumental drawing took place Saturday night, with the Texas Hill Country location now sharing the spotlight with another winning ticket holder in Missouri.
Each of the two fortunate winners has the option to claim annuity payments totaling $893.5 million or a one-time lump sum prize of $410.3 million. The winning numbers drawn were white balls 11, 23, 44, 61, 62, and red Powerball 17. The Fredericksburg store’s sale marks a significant moment for the small Texas community, as the identity of the lucky ticket holder remains eagerly anticipated.
