A stop at Publix proved lucrative for a lucky lottery player in Florida.

Someone hit the jackpot playing Fantasy 5, winning $124,062.62 in the evening drawing Saturday, June 21, the Florida Lottery said.

The winning ticket, sold at a Publix Supermarket in Lake Placid, matched all five numbers.

The winner hadn’t come forward as of Monday, June 23, lottery officials said.

The winning Fantasy 5 numbers drawn Saturday evening were 1-3-14-17-32, results show. The lucky winner beat odds of 1 in 376,992 to snag the top prize.

There were no jackpot winners in the midday drawing that day.

Winners in Florida have 180 days to claim prizes on draw games and are encouraged to sign the back of their ticket, the Florida Lottery said.

Lake Placid is about a 100-mile drive southeast from downtown Tampa.

Many people can gamble or play games of chance without harm. However, for some, gambling is an addiction that can ruin lives and families.

If you or a loved one shows signs of gambling addiction, you can seek help by calling the national gambling hotline at 1-800-522-4700 or visiting the National Council on Problem Gambling website.
