There are two very happy lottery players in North Dakota today, after it was announced that winning tickets had been sold in both Grafton and Turtle Lake.
Right about now, the numbers determining who the person or family is that gets to walk way with the $1.5 billion Powerball lottery, the largest in history, are being drawn, and everyone who bought a ticket or a dozen is delirious with the thought that it just might be them.
With the Powerball jackpot reaching a staggering $1.5 billion, it's going to be incredibly difficult to stay anonymous if you win, unless, of course, you buy your ticket in North Dakota.
If you're lucky enough to win the Powerball jackpot Wednesday night, January 13th, your first purchase could be one of Mandan's most expensive homes, which is currently on the market.
If you purchased a Powerball ticket in Williston recently, you may want to check it, because a $1 million winner for Saturday's drawing was sold there.
