Three Winning Tickets In $564 Million Powerball Drawing
February 12, 2015
There were three winning tickets sold in North Carolina, Texas and Puerto Rico in Wednesday night’s $564 million Powerball lottery drawing — one of the country’s largest prizes in history. The tickets matched the winning numbers 11, 13, 25, 39, 54 with a Powerball of 19.
The odds at winning with a single ticket were estimated at 175 million to one.
The Powerball is played in 44 states, but Alabama does not participate. That led to a steady stream of hopeful winners at lottery retailers on Highway 97 south of Atmore Wednesday afternoon and into the evening.
