An Everman resident is suddenly a whole lot richer after a Powerball ticket bought at a Walmart Supercenter in Arlington hit for a $1 million prize in the March 14 drawing. The ticket matched all five white balls but missed the red Powerball, adding another seven-figure non-jackpot payout to the Dallas–Fort Worth area’s spring winning streak.
Where the ticket was sold
According to the Texas Lottery, the $1,000,000 ticket was sold at Walmart Supercenter #3284, located at 4800 HIGHWAY 287 in Arlington. The March 14 drawing produced the numbers 9, 30, 42, 50, and 52, with Powerball 21, and the winning ticket matched all five white balls to lock in the $1,000,000 prize. The entry was a Quick Pick ticket.
Winner's hometown
As reported by WFAA, the lucky ticket belongs to an Everman resident. The station’s April 8 story lists both the winner’s city and the specific Arlington Walmart that sold the slip.
Retailer bonus details
The Walmart that sold the winning ticket may be eligible for a $10,000 payment under the Texas Lottery's Retailer Bonus Program, which offers incentive payments to stores that sell top-prize tickets. The program uses a tiered schedule and operates under a limited bonus budget. For the exact tiers and rules, see the Texas Lottery Retailer Bonus Program.
What this win means
Matching all five white balls earns the standard $1 million payout in Powerball. If the player had added the Power Play option, this prize tier would have jumped to $2 million. The official Powerball site notes that drawings are held three nights a week and provides the full breakdown of prize tiers, odds and the rules that govern payouts.
