$100,000 winning lottery ticket sold in Schuylkill County
A Pennsylvania Lottery retailer in Schuylkill County sold a Powerball with Power Play ticket worth $100,000 for Monday’s drawing.
The ticket matched four of the five white balls drawn, 2-27-42-44-51, and the red Powerball 25 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.
Smokin’ Joe’s Tobacco Shop, 38 Kings Village Plaza, Minersville, earns a $500 bonus for selling the winning ticket.
