Powerball winning tickets sold at Arizona, Missouri

Once the Powerball winning numbers got announced, it was a surety that people would take time to get over it. However, for some people, especially from Arizona and Missouri, this Powerball is going to bring a lot of money. This is because the two states have people, who purchased the two tickets for the Powerball Jackpot that stood in the end at a mammoth USD 587.5-million.

The winning numbers are 5, 23, 16, 22 and 29. The Powerball number for the jackpot is 6.

At this moment, there is no news on the winner. However, there have been claims made by the Missouri Officials. They have told the press that the ticket, which won from their state, got purchased from a Dearborn’s Trex Mart Store, which is located pretty much close to the Kansas City.

According to Karen Bach, who is the official spokesperson for the Arizona Lottery, Four Sons Food Store from the Fountain Hills sold the winning ticket for the Arizona State. And till now, the winner has not come in front as well.

Bob Chebat, who is the manager of the Four Sons, said, “It is quite unbelievable. I come across a lot of people, who, while buying the ticket, joke around for a lot of different things (in case they win). However, since the chances of winning this jackpot are so slim, it always has been the scenario that none won. However, today, things have changed drastically. I am very happy for the winner. I just hope that I was the one, who made the deal for the winning ticket.”

Both the state officials have said that the winners must take all the time, which they need to come forward. May Scheve Reardon, who is the Lottery Director in the Missouri State, said, “We would want the winner to take all the time that they need. There is no need to rush.”

It is believed that the Missouri winner has 180 days for making a claim of the jackpot amount.
