    A historic $1.8 billion Powerball jackpot has found its winners, with tickets sold in Texas and Missouri set to share the colossal prize. The drawing, held on Saturday, September 6, marked the third-largest jackpot in Powerball history, ending nearly three months of anticipation for players across the United States.

    The Texas Powerball Winner: Fredericksburg Ticket

    One of the winning tickets was sold in Fredericksburg, Texas, a small town located about 70 miles northwest of San Antonio. Officials confirmed the winning ticket was purchased at Big’s Convenience Store, 11905 E. US Highway 290. Interestingly, the ticket was not a quick pick, highlighting that deliberate number choices by the player led to the historic win.

    Fredericksburg, often referred to as the home of Texas Wine Country, is renowned for its vineyards, peaches, and small-town charm. Overnight, the town’s identity expanded from a tourism hotspot to a landmark in American lottery history.

    Where in Missouri Was the Powerball Winner?

    The second winning ticket came from Missouri, but state officials have not yet disclosed the exact retail location. Under Missouri law, the store where the ticket was purchased can only be revealed 72 hours after the draw. This policy aims to protect retailers and ensure proper verification before public announcements.

    For now, lottery enthusiasts are eagerly awaiting the confirmation of the Missouri Powerball winner’s location, which is expected to draw heavy attention and local pride.

    How Will the Jackpot Be Split?

    According to Powerball authorities, the $1.8 billion prize will be shared equally between the two winners. Each will have the option of choosing between:

    • An annuitized prize of $893.5 million, paid out over 29 years with annual 5% increases, or
    • A lump sum of $410.3 million, before taxes.
    Both options present extraordinary windfalls, but history suggests many lottery winners prefer the lump sum payout.

    More Texas Lottery Winners from the Draw

    Beyond the grand jackpot, Texas also saw additional significant wins in Saturday’s drawing. Powerball officials confirmed that 18 tickets matched all five white balls to secure $1 million prizes, while two tickets doubled their prize to $2 million with the Power Play feature.

    In Texas, notable wins included:

    • A $2 million ticket sold at Super Food Mart, 2431 ESE Loop 323, Tyler, TX.
    • A $1 million ticket sold at Murphy USA, 100 Walton Way, Midlothian, TX.
    • Another $1 million ticket sold at 7-Eleven, 10207 Lake Creek Parkway, Austin, TX.
    This wave of wins has brought widespread celebration across the state, with the Texas Powerball winner in Fredericksburg remaining the headline story.
