CRESAPTOWN, Md. — A Powerball player in Allegany County received an unexpected windfall after purchasing a $50,000-winning ticket at Lashbaugh’s Bar & Grill in Cresaptown for the November 20 drawing, Maryland Lottery officials announced Thursday.
The winning numbers drawn were 16, 30, 60, 62, and 64, with the Powerball number 25 and a Power Play multiplier of 3. While no one claimed the jackpot, the Cresaptown ticket is one of the state’s 55 third-tier prize winners this year.
The ticket was purchased at Lashbaugh’s, located at 13144 Warrior Drive in the small town just outside Cumberland. The drawing also created more than 8,300 other winners in Maryland, with prizes ranging from $4 to $100.
The Powerball jackpot now climbs to an estimated $171 million annuity for the Saturday, November 23 drawing, or a $78.7 million cash option. Lottery officials advise ticket holders to sign their winning tickets immediately and keep them in a safe place. Prizes must be claimed within 182 days of the drawing date.
A small-town bar becomes the site of big winnings as the Powerball jackpot continues to grow.
