According to News, The winning numbers for Thursday’s draw are 24 – 7 – 34 – 22- 13- 30 – 6, and the Powerball number was 10.
A spokesman of The Lott relayed that players should try and get their tickets early. The ticket sales are expected to soar into next week. Additionally, it is believed that a large number of people will buy the ticket for the $120 million dollar draw.
According to Matt Hart, the game hasn’t soared past $80 million since 2019.
“With such a massive offer on the table, we’re expecting people right around the country to be dreaming about exactly how they’d transform their lives if they won that prize.”
