Shirley Thibodeaux of Sunset heard from a friend that a $50,000 Louisiana Lottery Powerball prize from a ticket sold in Grand Coteau was still unclaimed. That is when she realized she had not checked her own ticket.  

“I was shocked! This whole time the ticket had been in the kitchen until someone told me about the unclaimed prize,” she explained. 

She said she plans to share the winnings with her immediate family.
