MADISON, Wis. -- The current Powerball jackpot is now more than a half a billion dollars and although no one won the big the prize on Saturday night, two winning $50,000 tickets were sold in Wisconsin at Kwik Trip on 715 W. Capitol Dr. in Hartland and at Speedway on 369 E. Oklahoma Ave. in Milwaukee for the August 16 drawing. Both winning tickets matched four of five numbers (23-40-49-65-69) and the Powerball (23).
