Tickets from Miami-Dade and a South Florida Publix split lottery jackpot
The only jackpot win among the big money Florida Lottery draw games on Tuesday — Mega Millions, Jackpot Triple Play, Fantasy 5, Cash4Life — was shared by players in Miami-Dade and Palm Beach counties.
The Mega Millions jackpot reached $100 million for Friday’s drawing. The Jackpot Triple Play is up to $275,000.
Tuesday’s first game, the Fantasy 5 midday drawing, came up 4, 9, 13, 17 and 25. Those numbers were on a ticket bought at the West Miami Sunflex station, 1330 SW 57th Ave. and a free Quick Pick ticket from a Boynton Beach Publix, 4966 Le Chalet Blvd. Each ticket won $26,070.
That makes four Fantasy 5 hits at three Boynton Beach Publix stores in just over two months.
