Lucky woman from Lansing wins a big jackpot worth in millions recently

A Lansing woman and her husband have long said it was only a matter of time before they hit a big lottery prize and that came true after they won a $1 million prize playing Powerball recently.

“Me and my husband buy a Powerball ticket for every drawing, and we always knew we would win big,” said 51-year-old Ana Elizalde.

“I purchased a Powerball ticket as usual, and I gave it to my husband to hold on to. A week after the drawing my husband found the ticket in his coat pocket and realized we had never checked it.

“We went to the store to scan it and got a message to file a claim. When we checked the numbers online and realized we’d won $1 million, we were in shock!

We always had a feeling this day would come and now that it’s here, it feels surreal.”
