Early Thursday morning, the Massachusetts State Lottery said the winning $758.7 million ticket was sold at Handy Variety in Watertown, however, the agency later said it made a mistake and the winning ticket was actually sold at Pride Station & Store in Chicopee, Massachusetts.
Following the crazy mix-up, people took to social media to discuss the incident.
"Omg," Shelley Christopher-Roy posted on Facebook.
"All the media rushing from #Watertown to #Chicopee lol," Keith J. Finks posted on Twitter.
Sandra Carter added, "So dumb!"
"The Mass Lottery, The Steve Harvey of Lottery Commissions. #Powerball #Chicopee #Watertown #MassLottery #Massachusetts," @JarvisOn929 tweeted.
The name of the winner is not yet known.
