The Oklahoma Lottery is Looking for Another $2 Million Winner
OKLAHOMA CITY (September 30, 2021) – The Oklahoma Lottery is searching for the owner of a $2 million winning ticket from last night’s Powerball® drawing—the second $2 million Powerball winner drawn in just 10 days. The ticket was sold yesterday at Snak Shak at 12th and Broadway in Sulphur. The winner matched 5 out of 5 white balls and added Power Play®—a $1 investment that turned a $1 million prize into $2 million. Powerball’s jackpot was not won on Wednesday, and the total continues to climb. The next drawing will occur on Saturday and is now an astronomical $620,000,000, making it the 6th largest Powerball jackpot in game history.
Wednesday night’s Powerball winner is the 72nd Oklahoma Lottery millionaire, including a Norman woman who won a $2 million Powerball prize on September 20th —also adding Power Play® to double her winnings.
Since the Lottery’s inception, 48 players have won $1 million or more playing Powerball from the Oklahoma Lottery.
About the Oklahoma Lottery
