Unclaimed $1 million Powerball ticket bought in Houston expiring this month
Luck is running out for a Powerball winner who bought a $1 million ticket from a store on Houston’s southwest side in July 2023-- that still hasn’t been claimed.
Texas Lottery announced that a second-tier winning ticket for the Powerball drawing held on July 19, 2023, will expire this month! The winning ticket matched all five of the white ball numbers drawn (7-10-11-13-24) but not the red Powerball number (24), a news release from Texas Lottery said.
