A $50,000 Powerball ticket was sold at a Kwik Trip in New Berlin for the Oct. 22 drawing. The ticket matched four of five numbers plus the Powerball; it was one of six $50,000 winners nationwide. The Wisconsin Lottery has had four $50,000 Powerball winners in the last 11 days; the jackpot now rises to $344 million.

After the record-setting $1.8 billion Powerball jackpot on Sept. 6, 2025, the Wednesday, Oct. 22, prize was close to $325 million.

The winner said she doesn't play often, so when she decided to buy a ticket, she asked ChatGPT for a set of numbers.

A woman was sitting on her porch drinking coffee when she found out she won a huge Powerball prize. The Madison County woman was running errands when she stopped at a store in Huntsville and bought two Powerball tickets for the Oct. 13 drawing, according to an Oct. 22 news release from the Arkansas Scholarship Lottery.
