Andrew Jackson “Jack” Whittaker, Jr. is the winner of a 2002 lottery jackpot. When Whittaker won US$314.9 million in the Powerball multi-state lottery it was, at the time, the largest jackpot ever won by a single winning ticket in the history of American lottery. After winning the lottery, he had several brushes with the law, as well as personal tragedies. Whittaker already had a net worth of over US$17 million before his Powerball windfall. Whittaker purchased the winning Powerball ticket at a supermarket in Hurricane, West Virginia, where he had stopped for a deli breakfast sandwich and to get fuel for his vehicle. The jackpot that day was a US$314.9 million annuity or US$170.5 million cash. Whittaker chose the cash option and received a check for US$113,386,407 after tax withholdings.
