Well, looks like Louisiana WAS a lucky state to buy A Powerball ticket this week because a $1,000,000 ticket was sold in Hammond!

Mississippi residents Thomas James his wife Debbie stopped in Hammond for coffee and lottery ticket after they had just docked in New Orleans from a cruise. The ticket they bought match all 5 Powerball numbers, but not the 6th.

They still won $1,000,000! The couple got $700,000 after taxes. so I can only imagine they're about to have one heck of a weekend!
