MIDDLETOWN — A Potter County lottery retailer sold a Pennsylvania Lottery Powerball® with Power Play® ticket worth $100,000 for the New Year’s day drawing.
The ticket matched four of the five white balls drawn, 49-53-57-59-62, and the red Powerball 26, to win $100,000, less applicable withholding. Without the $1 Power Play option, the ticket would have been worth $50,000. The Power Play multiplier drawn was two.
Drabee’s Mini Mart, 9 River St., Roulette, earns a $500 bonus for selling the winning ticket.
Winners are not known until prizes are claimed and tickets are validated. Pennsylvania Lottery Powerball® winners have one year from the drawing date to claim prizes. The holder of the winning ticket should sign the back of the ticket and contact the nearest Lottery office.
