A Kentucky couple from Bowling Green experienced a stroke of luck when they discovered they had won $50,000 from a Powerball ticket they thought they had lost. The couple had purchased the winning ticket about a week before learning of their good fortune in November, as reported by the Kentucky Lottery.
Mark Perdue, the husband, was informed of their win by the owner of AM Express, a convenience store he frequented. Initially skeptical, Perdue was surprised to find out that he was indeed a winner, as he was captured on the store's video footage purchasing the ticket.
