A Florida lottery player won a six-figure prize — but might not know it yet.
The player bought a Fantasy 5 game ticket that matched all the numbers picked in the drawing late Wednesday, Aug. 7, results show.
The winning numbers: 6-8-10-20-30.
The tickets for the Fantasy 5 game start at $1. The winner’s ticket — worth $118,266.55 — was sold at a 7-Eleven convenience store on North Dale Mabry Highway in Tampa, the Florida Lottery wrote on its website and in a news release.
The Florida Lottery gives winners about six months to cash in on their prizes in drawing games. As of Aug. 8, the $118,000 prize remained unclaimed, according to the lottery’s website.
The prize comes after a 7-Eleven shopper in another part of the state was even luckier. In February, a lottery player in Port St. Lucie bought a Mega Millions ticket worth $1 million, McClatchy News reported.
