“Big Money” Winning Powerball Tickets Sold In New York

Someone is VERY happy in New York this morning.

The New York State Lottery announced that there were 11 "Big Money" winning Powerball tickets sold in New York from Wednesday night's drawing.

"Big Money" is defined as any cash amount over $10,000.

One ticket matched all five of the numbers but missed out on the Powerball number which means that won $1 million dollars. According to the New York State Lottery, that ticket was sold at United Fashion Gift Shot in Flushing, New York.

There were 10 other Powerball tickets sold in New York that matched four out of five numbers and had the Powerball number. Each one of those tickets won $50,000.
