An Illinois iLottery player became a millionaire last month after matching all five numbers in the Powerball.
The winning ticket was purchased for the March 30th drawing with the numbers of 12-13-33-50-52.An Illinois grandfather, who has chosen to remain anonymous, said he was shocked when he realized he bought the winning ticket."I quickly scrolled through my account history, just to make sure I hadn’t already bought one for that night’s drawing. That’s when I saw an older ticket in my account saying ‘You’re A Winner!’ and I clicked on it.
I couldn’t believe my luck when it said I won a million dollars," he said.The winner said he wants to use the prize money to take his four grandchildren to Disney World."When my wife got home, I asked her to read my winning prize amount out loud," the winner said. "That’s when it finally started to sink in a little bit that this was, in fact, real."Over 1.3 million winning Illinois Lottery Powerball tickets have been sold this year, totaling over $12.
