An Oneida Nation couple has won the Powerball of $632 million.

Cliff and Tammy Webster of Wisconsin purchased the ticket at Jackson Point Citgo, Fox 11 reports. 

“We are sincerely grateful for this incredible event," Webster said, according to Fox 11. "We always believed that we had a chance to win if we played and this is a dream come true.” 

The duo chose the cash option of $225 million instead of annual payments, according to Fox 11.

When recalling the moment they discovered they won the jackpot, shock took over Cliff.

"I lifted my finger up, and sure enough it’s a 17," Cliff said, according to Fox 11. "And I couldn’t believe it. I just sat there staring at it. I yelled to her that we won and I couldn’t believe it. It’s unbelievable. I didn’t know what to do. At 4:30 in the morning, we’re hugging and yelling. It was one of the happiest moments of my life!”

According to Fox 11, after taxes they took home $153.9 million.

The couple split the jackpot with a winner from California, according to Fox 11. The winning ticket from The Golden State was purchased at a 7-Eleven store in Sacramento. 

Oneida Nation Chairman Tehassi Hill commented on the couple's recent fortune. 

"This is the first time to my knowledge of a Oneida citizen winning such a large amount of money, but it's just an amazing story," Hill said, according to Fox 11. "Obviously they worked their entire lives and built a wonderful life together."

Fox 11 reports that the jackpot was one of the largest in the history of Powerball. 

The next Powerball drawing takes place on Feb. 12, 2022 with an estimated jackpot of $172 million, giving the potential winner a $117.3 million cash value, according to Powerball.com. 

Established in 1992, the Powerball lottery gives Americans a chance to become rich overnight. The weekly drawing occurs every Monday, Wednesday and Saturday. Tickets are $2 per play and sold in most U.S. states and territories except Alabama, Alaska, Hawaii, Mississippi, Nevada and Utah.
