Texas Lottery Confirms $2 Million Powerball Winner Sat, March 15

The Powerball drawing held on Saturday night (March 15) proved to be quite the windfall for one Lottery player in the great state of Texas to the tune of $2 million.

Lottery players from Beaumont to El Paso, Austin to Dallas, and all points in between were hoping to secure the top prize of $378 million. And while no one did that, someone in Texas is now a millionaire.

That player matched all five white balls and was only missing the magic red Powerball to take home the top prize. Still, a nice day for them, no doubt.
