A $1 million 7-Eleven stop for a Florida Lottery player in South Florida

A Royal Palm Beach man won a $1 million prize on a 7-Eleven run and claimed his money last week.

Vaughn Conlin laid out $20 for a Gold Rush Legacy Florida Lottery scratch-off game at the 7-Eleven at 10025 Belvedere Rd.. Conlin didn’t get one of the four $10 million top prizes, but he found himself holding one of the 20 $1 million second prize tickets.

Conlin claimed his prize at the district office in Palm Springs, taking a one-time lump sum payoff of $640,000.
