What was the last jackpot to be won from the Louisiana Lottery?
A Powerball jackpot ticket worth $232 million was sold in the South Dakota town of Winner. State lottery officials say the owner has yet to come forward but they plan to hold a news conference Thursday morning in Pierre (PEER) to offer details. They say it’s the ninth-largest Powerball jackpot ever. Out of the millions of tickets sold for Wednesday night’s drawing, only one matched all six winning numbers: five, six, 12, 16 and 21. The Powerball was seven. A dozen players came close to the big money by matching five numbers. They’re worth at least $200,000 and were sold in Colorado, Florida, Indiana, Minnesota, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, South Carolina and Wisconsin. Powerball is played in 30 states, Washington, D.C. and the U.S. Virgin Islands. Sources: http://www.nola.com/louisiana-lottery/index.ssf/2009/05/powerball_ticket_worth_232m_so.
