9/01/2009 - 9:41 AM Powerball Prize Set to Expire Sept. 28. As of today, no one has stepped forward to claim a $10,000 Powerball prize won on April 1. The winning ticket was purchased at Premium Unleaded on Old Spanish Trail in Slidell and is set to expire Sept. 28.The ticket matched four of the five white ball numbers drawn and the red Powerball number. The winning numbers for the April 1 drawing were 2-9-33-41-54 and the Powerball number was 14. The holder of the winning ticket has until 5 p.m. on the date of expiration to claim the prize, which is subject to applicable federal and state tax withholdings. Prizes greater than $600 may be claimed at any of the Lottery's five regional offices located throughout the state or at Lottery headquarters in Baton Rouge. "We look forward to the winner coming forward to claim this prize. In the meantime, the individual should treat the ticket as cash," said Lottery President Rose Hudson. "It is also a good idea to sign the back of the ticket for security purposes." Winners of the Lottery's draw-style games must claim their prize within 180 days of the drawing. After prizes have passed their redemption deadlines, they are deposited into the Lottery's unclaimed prize fund, which is returned to players in the form of increased payouts on scratch-off games and player promotions. Ticket purchasers must be at least 21 years of age. The Lottery encourages responsible play and urges anyone or friends of anyone with a gambling problem to call toll free 1-877-770-7867 for help. |
