After purchasing the ticket, they went home and fell asleep without checking their ticket. The next day, the player saw a news story at work about the winning ticket being sold in Arkansas and looked up the numbers.

To their surprise, the player matched all but the Powerball number for a $1 million prize. However, they bought the ticket with Power Play for an additional $1, doubling the prize to $2 million.

Another ticket sold for the April 29 drawing, worth $1 million, is still waiting to be claimed.

The ticket was purchased at the Maverik gas station located at 2894 W. Walnut Street in Rogers.

The winner has 180 days from the draw date (until Monday, Oct. 26) to claim their prize.
