Iowa Couple Wins $202 Million Jackpot

Iowa Couple Wins $202 Million Jackpot, At first, Mary Lohse matches three numbers and thinks that she's only won $100. Iowa Couple Claims $202M Powerball Jackpot, Mary and Brian Lohse of Bondurant, Iowa, walked into the Iowa Lottery headquarters on Thursday as a medical technician and attorney, respectively, and parents to three children.

They exited the headquarters in a stretch limousine after claiming their prize as sole winners of a $202.1 million Powerball jackpot.

The story is so unbelievable that even Mary Lohse, 42, who bought the winning Powerball ticket last week at a local Casey's General Store where she stopped for gas, didn't think she had won the grand prize.

"I have the last three numbers and I was like, 'Well, crap, I think I won at least 100 bucks," she said at a news conference Thursday.
