Player from northeastern Indiana wins $150,000 prize on Powerball

A player from northeastern Indiana won a $150,000 prize on Powerball^®. He has been playing Powerball for 30 years, always playing one ticket with numbers he picks and one Quick Pick ticket. He won $150,000 on his most recent Quick Pick ticket. The day he found out he had won he was in his home office checking his numbers on the Hoosier Lottery website. He confirmed his numbers matched the winning numbers, and he called his wife into the office. He asked her, “What is the most money you have ever held in your hands?” Then he handed her the ticket and told her he had won $150,000. They tucked the ticket away safely until they were able to claim their prize. With the prize money they plan to do some home renovations and put the rest into savings. Congratulations!
