A view of the gas pumps as the sun sets on a QuikTrip in St. Louis county, on Monday, Sept. 8, 2025. The winning Powerball ticket was purchased from this QuikTrip and is worth $893.5 million. The winner split the total jackpot sum of $1.787 billion, shared by another winner located in Fredericksburg, Texas.
The winning ticket in Saturday's record Powerball drawing was sold at a QuikTrip in north St. Louis County, the Missouri Lottery announced Monday.
Someone bought the ticket worth $893.5 million at the QuikTrip at 12110 Lusher Road. The store is at the corner of Lewis and Clark Boulevard and Parker Road in Spanish Lake.
The winning ticket holder will split the $1.787 billion jackpot, the second-largest lottery jackpot in U.S. history, with a second winner. That ticket was sold in Fredericksburg, Texas.
It's the largest jackpot awarded in Missouri history, about three times bigger than the previous biggest.
The winner can choose between two claiming options: a lump-sum payment of $410.3 million or the full $893.5 million in 30 graduated annuity payments. Both prize options are represented before tax considerations.
The winning numbers were 11, 23, 44, 61 and 62, with the Powerball number being 17.
Two of the 18 tickets to win $1 million prizes in the drawing were sold in Illinois, one in Skokie, which is in suburban Chicago. The other was bought online.
The $1.787 billion prize followed 41 consecutive drawings in which no one matched all six numbers. The last drawing with a jackpot winner happened May 31.Â
Powerball tickets cost $2, and the game is offered in 45 states plus Washington, D.C., Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands.
Powerball players in Missouri and Texas won the nearly $1.8 billion jackpot on Saturday, overcoming astronomical odds to end the lottery game’s three-month drought without a big winner. The winning ticket in Texas was sold at a gas station-convenience store in Fredericksburg, according to the Texas Lottery.
