Winner Stories
Leigh Frye is retired from the Air Force and enjoys spending time with her dog and husband.
When Draw game jackpots are on the rise, Leigh and her husband join in the fun and play. They purchased a quick pick Powerball® ticket when the jackpot ballooned to over $1 billion.
Leigh was on the phone with her daughter when her husband beeped in. He told Leigh they had won $100 on their Powerball® ticket, and he was going to cash it at Kroger. Excited, Leigh clicked back to her daughter to tell her about winning $100. However, once the clerk at Kroger scanned the ticket, Leigh’s husband was informed that he had won much more than $100.
Not wanting to get his hopes up, he assumed they might have won $1,000. Leigh then took a closer look and realized they had won $50,000! “We looked, and looked again, and couldn’t believe it!”
Leigh’s husband had recently found $50 in an old wallet, which was a pleasant surprise, but this win took the cake. The couple plans to remodel their bathroom with the prize money.
