Two brothers recently both scored victories in the Florida Powerball - one of them hit the $291.4 million jackpot while the other’s ticket was worth only $7.

Holding a winning lottery ticket is great, but how great largely depends upon the size of the prize.

Two brothers recently both scored victories in the Florida Powerball - one of them hit the $291.4 million jackpot while the other’s ticket was worth only $7. 

Nonetheless, the Florida Lottery printed out huge checks for both James and Bob Stocklas and took a photo of the brothers standing side by side. 

It’s unclear how $7 winner Bob got to the offices for the presentation, but his big-winning brother James, who lives and works in Pennsylvania, got back to Florida via a $20,000 ride on a private jet. 

James also noted he and the friends flying with him sipped Champagne while en route.
