🍀See where they bought the winning ticket (and who won)!

What would you do if you won the lottery!?

Someone in Idaho won $250,000 this week playing the Powerball, was it you?

The biggest winner in Idaho history was a big one, Idahoan Brad Duke won $220.3 Million. While we are thrilled for Brad, who according to "started a family foundation for children and paid a helicopter to fly him and a buddy to the top of a Canadian glacier so they could mountain bike to the bottom."

Scratcher tickets are pretty fun, but I never FEEL like I'm going to win big, but some people really do! And this is what it's like...

Former BSU player Steve bought the ticket at Fred Meyer in Garden City on Friday. He scratched the ticket almost right away and quickly realized he'd won the top prize. He wasted no time going to the Lottery offices in Boise to collect. While at the Lottery office, he got another surprise.

National Lottery Day is the perfect day for you to try your luck. Take a look at previous Idaho winners and where they are now.

Earlier this year Idaho lawmakers were working on pulling the plug on the multi-state lottery because other countries were joining the game. Local lawmakers are worried about what participating foreign countries will do with their earned lottery revenue. Originally Idahoans were not going to have access in the gem state to play starting in August, but not anymore.

The timing for this couple is quite interesting. Kameron actually gave her notice at work that day. She was leaving her job and probably pretty nervous about how that would effect finances. It was later that same day that Charles called Kameron to tell her they had won. Talk about a sign that she did the right thing.

At least one Idahoan is celebrating a big win! Unless that is they don't know it yet. A $1 million Powerball ticket was sold in Blaine County but from the latest I know, they have not come forward yet.
