A town man has come forward to claim his $94.eight million Powerball jackpot that he won off a winning ticket purchased Sept. 16.
Did you know that in California, Powerball prize amounts are pari-mutuel, and will differ depending on ticket sales and quantity of winners, and will differ from the fixed prizes shown on the Powerball web-site.
The Powerball jackpot climbed to $699.eight million — the seventh-biggest in U.S. lottery history.
Two ticket-holders matched all the winning numbers in Wednesday’s Powerball drawing, which means they will split $632.six million jackpot, the seventh-biggest prize in the lottery game’s history.
