PHOENIX – A $150,000 prize awaits an Arizona Powerball player who struck it rich over the weekend. A ticket purchased at the Circle K on State Route 260 in Star Valley, just east of Payson, matched four of the five winning numbers — 2, 4, 16, 23 and 63 — plus the red Powerball of 13 in Saturday’s drawing.

The most recent big Mega Millions winner was a lucky lottery ticket holder in Arizona, who struck gold on Jan. 18, winning a $113 million jackpot. According to the lottery, only four tickets matched all six Mega Millions numbers in 2024 – the fewest jackpots won in a calendar year since the game began in 2002.
