Stinker Sells Another $1,000,000 Winner!

July 31, 2013 by Rebecca Russell

By KTVB BOISE – A group of Wyoming hospital workers will share a $1 million prize from the Idaho Lottery. For years, Connie Baumer has been buying Powerball tickets for a   club made up of emergency room staff from the St. John’s Medical   Center in her hometown of Jackson, Wyoming. During a shopping trip to eastern Idaho last week she stopped at the Stinker Store on Yellowstone Highway in Idaho Falls to check   her group’s tickets. “There were twelve people who had put in money for the last   draw.  We had $12 in winnings, so I asked the clerk to give   me a ticket for $12,” described Baumer on purchasing the ticket.   “I got six lines of play. It was the middle child that won!” Baumer was referring to the third line of six on their Powerball   ticket.  That line matched all five of the first numbers,   but not the Powerball, from the Wednesday, July 24, 2013 drawing. “I still don’t believe it,” added co-winner Cheryl Hewitt of   Irwin, Idaho, even after she received her real check. This winning Powerball ticket is the largest ever for residents   from Wyoming.  It is the third million dollar prize paid by   the Idaho Lottery since July 10, 2013 and the 44th million-dollar   or higher winning ticket claimed in the Idaho Lottery’s history. Stinker Stores received a $20,000 bonus from the Idaho Lottery   for selling the winning ticket. Only three of the twelve members in their group made the journey   to Boise to claim their prize.  Joining Baumer was Hewitt   and Kim Morse of Jackson, Wyoming.  The other winners were   Gary Baumer, Jackson, Wyoming; David Bender, Victor, Idaho;   Elaine Garrison, Jackson, Wyoming; Karen Lisenby, Jackson,   Wyoming; Andrea Mathers, Auburn, Wyoming; Maureen Miller, Idaho   Falls, Idaho; Christopher Morasco, Alpine, Wyoming; Daniel   Nelson, Jackson, Wyoming; and, McIntosh Sullivan, Victor, Idaho. Most planned to pay down bills and debt with their winnings. “We did save enough from our winnings to buy Powerball tickets   for another year, so hopefully we’ll win the big jackpot on   Wednesday night,” Baumer said. With no jackpot winner last Saturday night, the estimated   Powerball jackpot for Wednesday, July 31, 2013 is $235 million. Stop by your local Stinker Store and pick up your ticket tonight!
