UPDATE: Winner claims $50,000 Powerball prize sold in Bismarck
$6,000 Welcome Bonus
A North Dakota Powerball player visited the North Dakota Lottery office to claim the $50,000 Powerball prize won on Wednesday night’s draw. The lucky winner from Bismarck, who chose to remain anonymous, hit it big with a quick pick ticket. The lucky winner had no idea the ticket had won big, initially thinking it was only worth a few hundred dollars. Much to his surprise, he was holding the $50,000 winning ticket. The winner has no immediate plans for the winnings, as he is still trying to wrap his head around the fact he won tens-of-thousands of dollars.
The Powerball jackpot for the Saturday, Oct. 30, 2021, draw is $116 million.
