We heard about the woman in Massachusetts who won the Powerball, but a bunch of other people won smaller jackpots too. On the night of the second largest Powerball jackpot in history, Johanna Moreno thought she’d take a chance and purchased only one ticket for the drawing. “I really don’t play that often and I only had a couple of dollars on me.”
Little did she know, a $1,000,000 prize win was waiting for her! “I’m just in shock, I couldn’t believe it!” The Powerball winning numbers drawn on August 23 were ---- 6 – 7 – 16 – 23 – 26 – Powerball: 4. Moreno’s ticket matched the first 5 numbers drawn. The numbers played were a combination of Moreno’s children’s birthdays. After seeing the winning numbers posted on Facebook, Moreno ran outside to retrieve her ticket. “I had to go to the car, my ticket was in the car! I knew the numbers right away.” After double checking her ticket, she could hardly contain her excitement. “I jumped for joy! I put it in my purse and zipped it up but could barely sleep!”“It’s been difficult lately but now I plan to get a car, a house for the kids and go to school.” After receiving her check, Moreno looked up and said with a smile, “I’m very thankful—it’s a blessing.”
