"I like to play the Powerball game and was so excited when I found out I won $150,000," Philip said. "I won the prize right when COVID-19 hit, so I decided to wait to claim the prize. I ended up misplacing the ticket and just found it a few days ago."
Philip brought the ticket to lottery headquarters just days before the prize would have expired.
"I was so relieved and excited to have found it just in time before it expired," Philip said.
He said he plans to use his jackpot to pay off his student debts.
