A Marion County, Missouri resident had a lucky stop at Casey’s located at 818 Highway 24 & 36 in Monroe City, where he picked up a Powerball Quick Pick ticket during a routine gas stop. That ticket, from the August 21 Powerball drawing, turned out to be worth $50,000.
The winning ticket matched four of the five white-ball numbers along with the Powerball, making him the 30th Missouri Lottery player in 2024 to win $50,000 or more from a Powerball draw.
After claiming his prize at the Lottery’s St. Louis regional office, the excited winner summed up his feelings with a cheerful, “Winner, winner, chicken dinner!”
The winning numbers from the August 21 drawing were 27, 31, 33, 38, and 67, with the Powerball number 3.
Powerball, a popular multi-state lottery game, holds its drawings every Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday at 9:59 p.m.
