$100K Powerball ticket sold in Delaware County as jackpot climbs past $546 million
Middletown, PA – A Pennsylvania Lottery player in Delaware County is holding a Powerball ticket worth $100,000 after Wednesday’s drawing, just as the game’s jackpot continues to surge toward more than half a billion dollars ahead of Saturday night.
The ticket, sold at Domestic & Imported Beverages on 485 Baltimore Pike in Concord Township, matched four of the five white balls — 29, 39, 43, 51, and 65 — along with the red Powerball 23. Because the player added the $1 Power Play feature, their prize doubled from $50,000 to $100,000 thanks to the 2x multiplier drawn.
The retailer that sold the ticket will receive a $500 bonus from the Pennsylvania Lottery.
While the identity of the winner has not yet been revealed, they have one year from the drawing date to come forward and claim the prize. The Pennsylvania Lottery encourages all ticket holders to sign the back of their tickets and follow proper claim procedures. Online players will see winnings automatically applied to their accounts once verified.
The Powerball jackpot now stands at an estimated $546 million annuity — or $225 million in a lump-sum cash option — for Saturday’s drawing. The prize has been climbing since the last jackpot hit in September.
More than 36,200 other Pennsylvania Lottery players also won prizes in the latest drawing, with over 8,000 of those tickets including the Power Play option and more than 4,800 players opting in for Double Play.
The growing jackpot has sparked renewed interest in the Powerball game, which has already awarded several multi-million-dollar prizes in Pennsylvania this year.
