When someone wins the lottery, especially if it's a life-changing sum like $1 million or more, most winners won't hesitate to rush to lottery headquarters and claim their prize. However, life can get busy and lead to some winners forgetting to check their tickets to see if they hit the jackpot. If you recently purchased a lottery ticket in Arizona, you may want to check your numbers now as one lucky winner in the state matched enough numbers in Saturday's (April 6) Powerball drawing to score a $1 million prize.
According to the Powerball website, the lucky ticket sold in Arizona was one of seven to mach five numbers called during Saturday's drawing to win the $1 million prize. Other winning tickets were sold in Delaware, Florida, Iowa, Massachusetts, Michigan and Wyoming. ABC 15 reports that the lucky ticket was sold at Circle K near 51st Avenue and Lower Buckeye Road in Phoenix.
If you think you may have purchased the ticket, now's the time to check to see if you won. These are the lucky numbers that helped the to-be-determined winner score their huge prize:
Numbers: 22 - 27 - 44 - 52 - 69

Power Play: 3x
One extremely lucky player managed to match all six numbers called during Saturday's drawing to score the impressive $1.3 billion prize, the fourth largest drawing in the game's history. The jackpot has reset to $20 million ahead of Monday (April 8) night's drawing.
