Someone who bought a Powerball ticket in Delaware has a secret worth $214.7 million dollars.And as eager as Wayne Lemons is to know who the lucky winner of Saturday's jackpot is, the state lottery director advises that mystery person not to rush into his office.

$750 MILLION: Powerball lottery jackpot surges to 4th-largest everReply
There are plenty of things we could learn from the last few drawings. One of them is that the Delaware Lottery's website will always show the rollover amount until a winner is announced. Did you read the rest of what i wrote. The states of California and South Carolina reported no winners in their states while Delaware reported that it rolled.

Delaware Lottery looking for $7.7 million winnerReply
After reading this article earlier this evening, I have since looked through the two main papers in Delaware, The News Journal and the Delaware State News, and I couldn't find it in either. Perhaps I missed it. I think the article seemed to indicate that the lottery was trying to concentrate on the Harrington area to locate the winner. I was told that where the ticket was sold is very near the casino at the fair grounds and is also on the main highway leading north and south through Delaware. I

Pa. couple claims $128 million Powerball jackpotReply
If I lived anywhere close to Delaware, I'd always buy my tickets in Delaware. Why? because they allow you to remain completely anonymous and their taxes are the same as majority of the other states both for locals and out of state players. hmmm are there jobs in Delaware?

Holy rerun batman! I just found on the moonpie website that they are sold at Acme markets, which are all over Delaware (and the one supermarket I never go into, go figure).
