Connecticut Lotto news
Great grandma hits the Connecticut Powerball for $1 million
While in line at the Shaw’s Grocery customer service desk in Fairfield,
Rose Marks of Bridgeport almost decided to step away before buying a Powerball Quick Pick ticket for the Saturday, 09/20/2008 lotto drawing. But, my feet didn’t move, Rose said. Instead, she waited for the one ticket she planned to buy, a $2 Powerball with PowerPlay ticket. Rose’s patience paid off with a $1,000,000 prize for hitting 5 of the 6 numbers drawn that night.
With the Powerplay option Rose’s prize automatically increased to $1,000,000 because the multiplier drawn that night was 5. Rose shared her plans for the prize money,to spread it among her children
and her many grand and great-grandchildren. Her advice to others, "take a chance"”
