$1 million Powerball ticket sold in Colorado as jackpot grows

Four winning tickets were sold in Colorado for Wednesday night’s $1.4 billion Powerball drawing, but none took home the jackpot, according to state lottery officials.

The winning Colorado lottery tickets ranged in value from $50,000 to $ 1 million, according to a news release from the Colorado Lottery.

Lottery officials said the $1 million ticket was sold at a Safeway gas station in Peyton, a town in El Paso County.

A ticket worth $100,000 was sold at a King Soopers in Arvada, and tickets worth $50,000 were sold at a Harts Gas & Food in Estes Park and a King Soopers in Castle Rock, according to the release.

Two other winning tickets, neither of which took the jackpot, were sold in Colorado for Monday’s drawing, according to Colorado lottery records. One worth $2 million was sold in Parker, and one worth $150,000 was sold in Colorado Springs.

Without any jackpot winners, Saturday’s Powerball drawing has jumped to an estimated $1.7 billion — the third largest in the game’s history, according to lottery records. There have been more than 40 consecutive drawings without anyone matching all six numbers, and no one has won the grand prize since May 31.

The Powerball jackpot reached $2.04 billion in May 2023 and $1.72 billion in April 2024.
