MADISON, Wis. – It was another winning weekend in Wisconsin with a $1,000,000 Powerball winner and $91,000 Badger 5 winner.

Badger 5 hit it big on Friday, when one lucky player matched all five numbers (2, 3, 9, 20, and 23) to win the $91,000 jackpot. Weber's BP (2305 Calumet Drive) in New Holstein sold this winning ticket.
