One of Tuesday’s Florida Lottery jackpot-winning tickets was bought in Miami
Lottery luck landed on gas stations near the edge of Florida on a Tuesday with Mega Millions, Fantasy 5, Jackpot Triple Play and Cash4Life games.
Friday’s Mega Millions jackpot will be at $213 million after nobody hit that Tuesday. The Jackpot Triple Play jackpot will remain at $2 million for Friday.
Tuesday’s Fantasy 5 midday drawing winner had an even better profit margin than usual when a free Quick Pick ticket with 9, 22, 27, 30 and 35 turned into a $52,552 ticket. That ticket was obtained from the Circle K gas station and mini-mart at 746 W. Garden St. in Pensacola.
The Fantasy 5 evening drawing came up 1, 13, 16, 17 and 26, numbers on a Quick Pick ticket bought at a Miami Chevron, 1601 Coral Way, and Hamilton’s General Store in Graceville. Each ticket is worth $52,464.
These tickets must be cashed at the Florida Lottery main office or one of the nine district offices. The Miami district office is in Miami Lakes, 14621 Oak Ln., and can be reached at 305-364-3080 or MIARC@flalottery.com. The office is open 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday.
