$400million Powerball winner comes forward to reveal he only bought a ticket when he couldn't get HOTDOG buns
Last week’s Powerball jackpot winner never intended to buy the $400 million golden ticket. The South Carolina man was actually just at the store to buy hot dog buns.
The lucky guy has chosen to remain anonymous, but lottery officials say the newly minted millionaire was sent out to bye the buns by his wife and when the Lexington gas station didn’t have what he wanted, he bought $20 worth of lottery tickets instead.
It was only the man’s second time ever playing the lottery. And the first person he told as he danced around his kitchen: the family dog.
His dog, his wife and lottery officials may be the only people who know the winner for certain. South Carolina is one of only six Powerball states that allow winners to refuse to let their identities to be released. The others are Delaware, Kansas, Maryland, North Dakota and Ohio.
Lottery officials aren't saying whether the man took the $399.4 million payout over 30 years or the direct cash option of $233 million.
The jackpot was the fourth largest in the history of the game and the South Carolina man was the only winner.
Meanwhile, the jackpots have grown exponentially since the ticket price doubled from $1 to $2 in January and after California, America’s most populous state, joined the fray in April.
An 84-year-old Florida woman became the winner of the largest Powerball jackpot ever in May. Gloria C. MacKenzie hit all the numbers for a $590 million jackpot.
