A small eatery on a wealthy Massachusetts island is gaining national attention after producing yet another millionaire. Old South Diner has now sold its fifth lottery ticket worth $1 million or more in just two years, and this time, a local woman is celebrating the life-changing win.
The most recent jackpot came from a $2 million Powerball ticket purchased at the diner in March 2026. Initially, lottery officials said the winner had not yet come forward and could take up to a year to claim the prize. However, within days, that changed when a longtime Nantucket resident, Mary Haley, stepped forward to claim her fortune at the Massachusetts State Lottery headquarters.
