A Publix in Miami-Dade sold Thursday’s only Florida Lottery jackpot ticket
Thursday’s a light day for Florida Lottery major money draw games, but there was one jackpot winner: a Publix shopper in Miami-Dade.
Friday will be much busier with the daily Fantasy 5 and Cash4Life drawings, plus a Mega Millions jackpot at $843 million and a Jackpot Triple Play top prize of $875,000.
Thursday, the Fantasy 5 midday draw numbers — 14, 20, 21, 24 and 26 — were chosen by a player at the Publix at Tamiami Trail Shops, 13850 SW Eighth St. That was a $54,861 choice.
This ticket has to be cashed at a Florida Lottery office. Appointments can be made, but walk-ins are accepted also. The Miami district office, 14621 Oak Ln. in Miami Lakes, is open 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. and can be reached at 305-364-3080 or MIARC@flalottery.com.
