Lightning has struck twice in San Antonio as another resident has clinched a million-dollar prize from the Powerball, adding to the city's streak of luck. In the draw held on March 4, the yet-unidentified winner scored the seven-figure sum after purchasing the golden ticket from Circle K on Thousand Oaks Drive, KSAT reports. With the combination of 10-16-18-40-66, the winner had the right numbers but just missed the Powerball number, which was 16.
This stroke of fortune closely follows another million-dollar win where a San Antonio ticket-holder had the January 31 drawing on their side. Sold at Q Food Mart, the ticket wielded the numbers 15-18-19-41-43 vibing to the tune of a million dollars, although the victory dance halted before reaching the Powerball number 14, KENS5 reported.
In the tradition of many lotto victors, both San Antonians have opted for anonymity, a choice available within Texan law. The Texas Lottery has not revealed either of the winners' identities, and it's unclear if the newfound riches will translate to public generosity or private celebration.
For those feeling lucky, the Powerball continues to offer grand prizes starting at the $20 million mark, escalating with each rollover until a ticket matches all six numbers. Residents with a taste for risk and reward flock weekly, hopeful to have their lives transformed as the balls tumble. The next chance to win is around the corner with drawings broadcast every Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday at 10:12 p.m. CT, as KSAT mentions.
