MINNEAPOLIS — The two grand-prize-winning Powerball tickets were sold in Arizona and Missouri, but some tickets sold in Minnesota and Wisconsin qualified as nice consolation prizes.
State lottery officials say one ticket sold in Minnesota's Winona County matched all five numbers but not the Powerball. That ticket is worth $1 million. A $1 million ticket also was sold in the Milwaukee suburb of West Allis, Wis.
Six other tickets in Minnesota, and 10 purchased in Wisconsin, matched four of the five numbers along with the Powerball. Each of those tickets is worth $10,000. One in Wisconsin was quadrupled because the player bought the Power Play multiplier feature.
Winners have six months to claim their prizes.
If you played Powerball, the numbers you should have played for Wednesday's drawing were 5, 16, 22, 23 and 29, and a Powerball of 6. The drawing was worth $587.5 million.
The next Powerball jackpot will be worth $40 million.
