Wanczyk, of Southbridge, bought the lucky ticket that matched all five numbers on Thursday – 6, 7, 16, 23 and 26 – and the Powerball, 4, at the Pride Station and Store in Chicopee, Massachusetts. 

Wanczyk said she and her mother, stepfather, and another friend play Keno weekly and their lucky number in the game is 4, which is why she picked that as the Powerball digit.

‘My pipe dream came true,’ Wanczyk said at a news conference.

Wanczyk, who was joined by her mother, Marsha Costa, and two sisters, also said she doesn’t plan to return to work. She said her dream of early retirement has finally come true.
