MADISON, Wis. — Two is better than one. Just ask Family Fil on W7711 State Rd. 21 in Wautoma. The Wisconsin Lottery retailer sold a winning $150,000 Powerball ticket for the Monday, September 23, drawing. It is the second time in 2024 Family Fil has sold a winning $150,000 Powerball ticket. The first time was for the March 30 drawing. Last night’s winning ticket matched four of five winning numbers (15-21-25-37-45) plus the Powerball (19). The winning play included the $1 Power Play on the ticket turning a $50,000 win into a $150,000 because of the 3X multiplier. Available to players since March 2001, the Power Play feature gives players the chance to multiply non-jackpot prizes by up to five times their original value. In 2024, 12 winning Wisconsin Powerball tickets of $50,000 or more included the Power Play. Wisconsin Lottery retailers who sell winning tickets over $599 receive a two percent Retailer Performance Program Winning Ticket Incentive, up to $100,000. Players have 180 days from the draw date to claim their winnings. Information on how to claim a prize is on wilottery.com.
