The winning ticket was purchased at a Circle K in the city of Glendale, Arizona Lottery spokesman John Gilleland said Wednesday.
The jackpot can be paid out as an an annuity with 30 annual payments or is
worth $316.8 million if collected in a lump-sum, Gilleland said.
The winning numbers were 1, 5, 9, 10 and 23, with Mega Ball 22.
Under a 2019 Arizona law, the winner can remain anonymous forever, Gilleland said.
“We may never be able to release the identity,” he said.
The law specifies that winners of Arizona Lottery prizes of $100,000 or
more automatically remain anonymous for 90 days but the winners can
choose to remain anonymous permanently. The option for permanent
anonymity was adopted last year.
“Every single person that has won that sort of money has opted for that,” Gilleland said.
As of Tuesday afternoon, the prize was unclaimed. The ticket was sold at
Fast Lane Shell, 1999 E. Ajo Way, near South Kino Parkway, according to
Arizona State Lottery officials.
The ticket matched four out of the five numbers and the Powerball number. "This ticket's cash prize
would have been $50,000, but since the ticket also had Power Play, the
total cash prize tripled to $150,000," officials said.
The winning numbers were 16, 32, 35, 36, 46 and Powerball number 3. The
Power Play number was 3. The holder of a Powerball ticket worth more
than $136 million has contacted the West Virginia lottery.
But lottery assistant director Randy Burnside says the winner wants to
remain anonymous.The ticket that was sold at a convenience store in
Hinton was the only winning ticket in the country to match all six
numbers drawn June 3.
