A group of individuals who formed a Michigan Lottery club have emerged as winners of a grand prize worth $1 million from the popular Powerball game offered by the Michigan Lottery.
Robert Hoerauf and his partner, who remained anonymous, bought the winning ticket at Northview Wine Shoppe, located at 23015 21 Mile Road in Macomb.
The Sandy Island Cove MLC lottery club, a two-person team, won $1 million by matching the five white balls in the Oct. 7 drawing: 47-54-57-60-65.
Michigan Lottery players won more than $13 million in prizes during the Powerball jackpot run that began on July 22 and ended on Oct. 11. The $1.765 billion jackpot was won by a single ticket purchased in California, making it the second-largest lottery jackpot ever won. Throughout the course of the jackpot run, six Michigan Lottery players won prizes of $1 million or more.
The club recently visited the Michigan Lottery headquarters to claim their prize.

It's understandable that some lottery players are enticed by the whopping $173 million jackpot, but it's essential to keep in mind that the chances of winning Powerball's top prize are exceedingly slim.
