Missoula
resident, Bruce Sperry, is regular lottery player and usually purchases his
ticket from the Hellgate Trading Post. He's had other wins in the past, but
this is the biggest so far.
A $40,000
win is a respectable sum, but Sperry admits it could have been more. He was
just one number away from winning $80 million. A win like that could have
changed his life forever, but he states he is happy with what he got.
Sperry and
his wife have no definite plans for their Powerball windfall, but say it will
come in handy because they are remodeling their home.
