A Publix sold Sunday’s only big money Florida Lottery draw game winner

The day before Monday’s $130 million Powerball drawing, a Florida Lottery player at a Publix had a happy Sunday afternoon.

When the Fantasy 5 midday drawing numbers fell out as 20, 21, 22, 27 and 33, someone who got their ticket at the Publix Liquor Store, 18901 State Rd. 54 in the Tampa suburb of Lutz, won $57,475.
