Faithful Oregon Powerball Player Wins $10,000
02/04/08 Portland, Oregon: Toilose Mapapalangi of Portland calls herself a faithful Powerball player. To add to her excitement, and give her luck as many chances to work as she can, Toilose buys her Powerball tickets at different locations. Well, the ticket bought at 7-Eleven, on N Lombard St., in Portland, turned out to be the luckiest one so far. Toilose matched four of five numbers, plus the power ball, to become a $10,000 winner. Her winning ticket was one of two winning $10,000 tickets, and overall, one of 9,730 winning tickets for Oregon Lottery Powerball players from the drawing.
Toilose, a native of Tonga, has eight children. She was excited to win, but seemed even more excited because her granddaughter’s 1st birthday was the next day. The timing is just great, said Toilose.
Toilose didn’t know which Lottery retailer she’d purchased her winning ticket from until her ticket was verified, and the Lottery’s customer service representative checked for her. Toilose hopes to be back one day to win the Powerball jackpot.
