$50,000 Unclaimed Powerball Prize Set to Expire March 5

BATON ROUGE — A $50,000 Louisiana Lottery Powerball prize sold during the September 6, 2025 drawing has yet to be claimed. The winning ticket was purchased at Hoppin Harley Food Mart on Highway 1065 in Tickfaw. 

The winning ticket matched four of the five white-ball numbers drawn and the red Powerball number to win $50,000. The winning numbers for the drawing were 11-23-44-61-62, and the Powerball number was 17. 

The holder of the winning ticket has until 5 p.m. on the date of expiration to claim their prize, subject to the Lottery’s hours of operation. The Louisiana Lottery encourages all players to sign the back of their tickets immediately after purchasing to protect their claim. 

“We look forward to the winner coming to claim this prize.  In the meantime, the individual should treat the ticket as cash,” said Lottery President Rose Hudson. 

Winnings are subject to applicable federal and state tax withholdings. Powerball prizes greater than $5,000 must be claimed at one of the Lottery’s five regional offices located throughout the state or at Lottery headquarters in Baton Rouge by presenting the original printed ticket.  

Winners of the Lottery’s draw-style games must claim their prize within 180 days of the drawing.  After prizes have passed their redemption deadlines, they are deposited into the Lottery’s unclaimed prize fund, which is returned to players in the form of increased payouts on instant-win games and player promotions.  

Ticket purchasers must be at least 21 years of age.  The Lottery encourages responsible play and urges anyone or friends of anyone with a gambling problem to call toll free 1-877-770-7867 for help.  A list of large unclaimed prizes set to expire in the next 90 days can be found on the Lottery’s website at Unclaimed Prizes | Louisiana Lottery Corporation.
