Lottery player wins $150,000 jackpot in Georgia. Where was ticket sold?
A stop at a convenience store proved lucrative for a Georgia lottery player.
The player won a $150,000 Fantasy 5 jackpot after matching all five numbers in the drawing Sunday, July 6, the Georgia Lottery said.
The winning ticket was sold at a Magnet Market in Conyers, beating odds of 1 in 850,668 to snag the game’s top prize.
The winner hadn’t come forward as of July 7, a lottery spokesperson told McClatchy News.
The numbers drawn Sunday were 4-18-21-33-36, results show.
It’s the latest in a string of big lottery wins across the Peach State, coming just three days after a Mega Millions player in Kennesaw netted a $3 million prize, McClatchy News reported.
On July 4, someone hit the Fantasy 5 jackpot and won $567,689, the Georgia Lottery said. That ticket was sold at a BP station in Carrollton.
Winners in Georgia have 180 days to claim prizes on draw games and are encouraged to sign the back of their ticket, the lottery’s website says.
Conyers is about a 25-mile drive east from downtown Atlanta.
