$32.6 million Powerball jackpot prize won in Kansas

TOPEKA (KSNT) – The Kansas Lottery reports the Powerball jackpot prize has been hit in the Sunflower State, resulting in a eight-figure payday for a lucky ticket holder.

Cory Thone with the Kansas Lottery said in a press release that multiple large prizes were won in Kansas during the Powerball drawing on April 29, including the jackpot prize. He said the jackpot prize will be split between two winners in Kansas and Indiana, resulting in an estimated cash total of $32.6 million for both winning ticket holders.

Thone said the Powerball jackpot prize for April 29 was set at $143.4 million with an estimated cash option of $65.2 million. The winning numbers for the drawing were 3-19-35-51-67 with a Powerball of 15.

Five other Powerball players in Kansas also hit it big in the April 29 drawing. The Kansas Lottery reports five tickets with a value of $1 million were sold in Kansas, along with a $2 million ticket. The tickets were sold in the following regions:

• Powerball jackpot ticket – south-central Kansas

• $2 million ticket – southeast Kansas

• $1 million tickets

  • Two in south-central Kansas

  • One in north-central Kansas

Thone told 27 News staff with the Kansas Lottery can’t remember having a night with so many big winners in a single drawing. He said the last Powerball jackpot hit in Kansas was in 2022 for around $90 million.

“We are still buzzing with excitement at the Kansas Lottery this morning,” Thone said in a statement to 27 News. “On top of having the Powerball jackpot hit in the Sunflower State, we also had six different 7 figure prize winners across multiple regions of the state. This is possibly the most big prize winners we’ve ever had in one drawing!”
