Are you a resident of West Virginia? Did you buy a lottery ticket for the Powerball drawing on Saturday, February 24? If you did, double-check your tickets because there were three Mountain State winners in that drawing. Each winner is holding a ticket worth $50,000.

The three tickets were sold separately at the following West Virginia Lottery retailers:

  • Pike Street Lanes, located at 2605 Pike Street in Parkersburg
  • Curt's, located at 79 Market Street in Peterstown
  • BFS Foods, located at 328 E Main Street in Bridgeport

The winning numbers are 3, 8, 40, 53, and 58, and the Powerball number is 3.

If you're holding one of the winning tickets, sign it on the back and call the West Virginia Lottery at (304) 558-0500, and you'll receive instructions on how to make your claim.
