If you play the Texas Powerball then you should know that two Pearland Residents claimed second-tier prize winning Powerball tickets each worth $1 million on the same day. Pearland Resident Lleana Reyes purchased her second tier prize winning ticket for the March 7th drawing. She purchased her ticket at the Kroger #264 at 3245 FM 518 in Pearland, matching all five of the white ball numbers (34, 36, 38, 42, 50) except the red Powerball number which was (33).

Paul D. Dillon, also a Pearland resident purchased his second-tier prize winning ticket for the December 24, 2014 drawing at the Handi Plus #7336 at 2112 Broadway St. in Pearland, Texas. Paul’s ticket matched all five of the white ball numbers (11. 12, 46, 47, 50), but he didn’t match the red Powerball number which was (22).

Both winners requested minimal publicity.

What a incredible event to happen in Pearland for those two lucky winners.
