A Powerball player in Michigan won $1 million in Saturday night's drawing after matching five numbers, according to the Michigan Lottery. While no one claimed the game's top jackpot, the Michigan ticket still delivered a seven-figure prize.
The winning ticket was sold at a gas station in Rogers City, giving the small northern Michigan community a notable lottery win. Details about the ticket holder were not immediately available.
Powerball prizes are based on how many numbers a player matches, and matching all five white balls without the Powerball is worth $1 million. Saturday's drawing produced that result for one Michigan ticket, even though the grand prize remained out of reach.
Lottery officials typically advise winners to sign the back of their ticket, keep it in a safe place and contact the lottery for next steps. For Michigan players, the main takeaway from Saturday's drawing is that a $1 million Powerball ticket was sold in Rogers City.
