Overview

• Corcoran claimed his combined $2 million prize at Massachusetts State Lottery headquarters on July 11 and said he has no immediate plans for the funds.
• A mistaken belief that his first multi-draw ticket had expired led him to buy a second ticket covering the same July 9 drawing.
• Each ticket matched the five white balls—numbers 5, 9, 25, 28 and 69—but missed the red Powerball to win $1 million per ticket before taxes.
• Market Basket in Fitchburg and Country Farms in Leominster each received $10,000 retailer bonuses under state lottery rules after selling the first $1 million Powerball tickets in those cities.
• The next Powerball jackpot is estimated at $308 million for the July 21 drawing.
