$15 Million Jackpot
$15 Million Jackpot
After Saturday night's drawing yielded one winner from Pennsylvania, Wednesday night's Powerball Lottery drawing was worth an estimated $15 million.

Wednesday's winning numbers were; 2, 12, 17, 48, 54 and the Powerball number 2.

According to Powerball officials, twenty-two postal workers will be sharing the $20 million Powerball jackpot from last Saturday's drawing. The lucky 22's winning jackpot ticket matched all five white balls and the red Powerball to win the Oct. 4 jackpot. The group of co-workers have been playing together for years and their persistancy finally paid off in a big way. Each
 winner will take home a little over $460,000.

The jackpot grew over 2 drawings to an estimated $20 million. The group elected to take the cash out option and share $10.2 million in cash.

This marks the second of the last two Powerball winners being a group of players. The $207 million winners from the September 27th drawing were a group for nine friends and family from New Mexico.

"That's crazy," said Chris Hansen of Knoxville, Tennessee. "I need to find a bunch of people to play with too. Maybe that will change my luck."

The Powerball Lottery game's drawings are held every Wednesday and Saturday night at 10:59PM Eastern.
