American wins eye-watering $396.9 million lottery jackpot

Written by on 4th March 2020

The huge Powerball jackpot of $396.9 million has been won by one lucky player from Florida
who has gone from rags to riches in a matter of moments.

The massive Powerball jackpot had been building up since last November and finally, the huge
jackpot has been claimed by a player in Florida. The jackpot winner, who wishes to remain
anonymous, managed to select all six winning numbers – 9, 12, 15, 31, 60 – and the Powerball
of 2.

The recently won jackpot has been rolled over a total of 24 times since November 6th, taking
around $33 million in contributions to the Educational Enhancement Trust Fund. Although the
Powerball jackpot has been won, the winner has not yet claimed the prize and will have 180
days to do so.

Despite the Powerball jackpot being advertised at $394 million, the lucky player actually
received a total of $396.9 million, according to the Florida Lottery Commission. The winning
ticket was reportedly purchased at a 7-Eleven stationed in Bonita Springs. The retailer that sold
the winning ticket will receive a $100,000.

The Powerball jackpot winner was not the only player to have won from Wednesday’s draw,
with another lucky participant winning $1 million. This lucky player brought their ticket from the
M&S Food Store in Coconut Creek.

Players will have another chance to win the Powerball jackpot on Saturday which currently sits
at around $40 million.
