Game officials say the winning Powerball ticket was sold in Dublin Virginia. A community that is located some 230 miles from the state's capital in Richmond. Lottery officials in Virginia say the ticket was purchased at Gill Brothers Gas Station.

Texas Lottery officials say a one million dollar winner for that same drawing was purchased in San Antonio. The jackpot winner and the Texas winner were the only million-dollar-plus wins associated with Saturday night's drawing.
