A married couple found out together on Christmas Day that the Powerball ticket the husband bought as a gift earlier in the month was a winner. DC Lottery officials say Pamela V. won $2 million after her husband bought her a Powerball ticket at a grocery store in early December.
The couple found out on Christmas that the ticket was a winner.
“We are elated to find out we won. It’s life-changing,” Pamela told lottery officials.
“We have kids in college, so this will help with college tuition.”
The couple plans to save most of their prize money, but they are also thinking about going on a family trip to the Caribbean. The couple’s $2 million ticket was the DC Lottery’s highest Powerball win in 2023.
