NH Powerball Players Claim Small Piece Of $768 Million Drawing
After $1 million winner was sold for Saturday's draw, New Hampshire Lottery reports $210,000 in prizes awarded Wednesday.
CONCORD, NH — New Hampshire residents who bought Powerball tickets in state for Wednesday’s $768 million drawing can pretty much carry on as usual for the rest of the week. According to the NH Lottery, $210,000 worth of winning Powerball tickets were sold across the state for the drawing, but no single prize was more than $300.
The sole $768 million winning ticket was sold in Wisconsin, at a store in a suburb of Milwaukee. In Massachusetts, one $150,000 winning ticket and four $50,000 winning tickets were sold for the drawing.
It was a much more exciting drawing for the Granite State on Saturday when 30 employees from Jordan’s Furniture in Nashua went in on a pool of tickets that produced a $1 million winner. That ticket was purchased at the Cumberland Farms across the street on Daniel Webster Highway.
