Fredericksburg Trust Claims $1.8B Powerball Jackpot, Texas Lottery History

Several notable Powerball wins were reported across various states recently. In Georgia, two players each won $1 million by matching five numbers without the Powerball, with other prizes of $50,000 awarded for matching four numbers plus the Powerball. Texas saw a historic win when the Seven Bridges Revocable Trust claimed over $410 million from a $1.8 billion jackpot, the second-largest in U.S. history, with the winning ticket purchased in Fredericksburg. North Carolina had a $50,000 winner from a ticket sold in Chapel Hill, and Tennessee reported a $100,000 win from a ticket bought through the state's online lottery platform. No grand prize winners were reported nationally on a recent Monday drawing, but various smaller prizes were awarded in Arkansas. These winnings highlight the continuing popularity and substantial payouts of the Powerball lottery across the country.
