Green Bay and West Salem Celebrate Big Wins
MADISON, Wis. -- It was a sizzling Saturday in Wisconsin and we're not talking about the weather.
A winning $100,000 ticket was purchased at the Kwik Trip on 2400 University Ave. in Green Bay and a winning $50,000 ticket was sold at the Kwik Trip on 341 Jefferson St. in West Salem for the September 12, 2026, drawings. Both tickets matched four of five numbers (14-16-23-58-69) and the Powerball (3); however, the $100,000 ticket included the $1 Power Play feature, so the winning prize was multiplied by 2X.
