#powerball Albuquerque Pool Shares $10,000 Powerball® Prize

June 1st, 2013

Twelve employees from Greenleaf Wholesale floral supply in Albuquerque, New Mexico were bloomin' lucky playing Powerball.

When the jackpot blossomed into $100 million in late April, the pool came together and each employee planted $5 in seed money to buy tickets. In the May 18 drawing, the pool won $10,000 by matching the red Powerball of 11 and the winning white ball numbers of 10, 13, 22, and 52. The co-workers missed landing a share of the historic $590.5 million jackpot when the winning white ball was 14 rather than their ticket's 26.

Pictured left to right are Carolyn Carter, Ricardo Perez, Mary Delgado, Raymond Jaramillo, Sandra Valdez, Gilbert Sandoval, Gilbert Apodaca, Roberta Gutierrez, Sandy Richards, Yvonne Hodges and Laurence Corriz. The 12th winner is Jimmy Griego.

The pool bought its lucky quick-pick ticket at Comanche Fuel Stop located at 600 Comanche Road NE in Albuquerque.
