John Fistler of Hemingford won 50 000 playing Powerball from the Nebraska Lottery. Fistler purchased his ticket at the Nebraska Lotterys Event Trailer at the Nebraska State Fair in Grand Island. Fistlers ticket contained four plays for the August 23 drawing one of which matched four of the five winning numbers (11 14 34 47 51) and the Powerball (18). Hed come to the State Fair to check out the 4-H project his grandson entered and happened to walk past the Nebraska Lottery Events Trailer and just had a feeling. I usually play all the games Fistler said. Lotto Truck Buck. Something told me to just play Powerball and nothing else. That premonition paid off and Fistler walked away with a 50 000 win
