3/18/2008 - 4:36 PM Slidell Resident Claims a $200,000 Powerball Prize
"I'm still in shock, but it feels great," said Miller, age 47. "This is my first time ever winning and it's two days before my birthday." He said he knew right away what he would do with the prize money. "I've been working on rebuilding my home since Hurricane Katrina, so this prize really helps out," he said. Miller's ticket matched all five white balls drawn but not the red Powerball number to win his prize. The winning numbers for the March 12 Powerball drawing were 12-19-30-34-36 and the Powerball number was 8. Miller purchased his winning ticket at Shaq's Discount Cigarettes & Liquor on Pontchartrain Drive in Slidell. The retailer will receive a one-time bonus of $2,000 for selling Miller his winning ticket. Players must be at least 21 years old to purchase a Lottery ticket. The Lottery encourages anyone who has a gambling problem or friends and family of anyone with a gambling problem to call toll-free 1-877-770-7867 for help. More winning numbers and information about Powerball can be found on the Louisiana Lottery Corporation's Web site, www.louisianalottery.com. More News |
