Because the tickets have yet to be claimed, Powerball winners have 180 days from the draw date — this one was Feb. 16 —  to claim any prizes. The winning numbers for this drawing were: 29-30-41-48-64, and the Powerball was 1.

The Powerball jackpot has grown since Dec. 29 and has rolled 15 times, the lottery agency said.

Another $50,000 ticket was also sold at the Bishop’s Travel Center, 7827 Tallahassee Highway, in Attapulgus, in southwest Georgia’s Decatur County.
