Five Mississippi Players Strike It Rich in Powerball Drawing

Big wins rolled into Mississippi during Saturday night’s Powerball drawing.

? Five lucky players cashed in:

  • Three $50,000 winners from Oxford, Moss Point, and Ocean Springs.

  • Two $100,000 winners from Brandon and Byram.

The Mississippi Lottery confirmed the wins on Monday. The Oxford ticket was snagged at the Walmart on Jackson Avenue, while the other lucky spots spread across both the Gulf Coast and near Jackson.

The winning numbers? 11, 23, 44, 61, 62, and Powerball 17. While Mississippi players scored impressive prizes, the jaw-dropping $1.787 billion jackpot went to winners in Missouri and Texas.

 

A reminder: even if you didn’t grab the jackpot, smaller prizes like these show it’s always worth checking your ticket twice.
