Indianapolis could very well be housing a newfound centi-thousandaire – if they check their pockets and couch cushions carefully. A sizeable bounty of $120,000 was reeled in after a CA$H 5 ticket hit the jackpot during Friday's drawing. According to FOX59, some lucky individual purchased the ticket at Speedway No. 6131, smack dab at 5959 Southeastern Ave.

The list of numbers was, no doubt, plucked from the dreams of a future rich person, or just a streak of serendipity, but either way, the digits 8-14-17-26-34 have changed someone's life. And for those still scratching their heads, the WTHR newsroom points out, checking gets more convenient with the Hoosier Lottery Mobile App. For those about to throw a party, or just hiding their ticket from family members they'd rather not share with – customer service at Hoosier Lottery is readily available at 1-800-955-6886 for prize claiming procedures.

Imagine, one minute you’re pumping gas, the next you're contemplating tax strategies. "Make sure their ticket is in a secure place, consider meeting with a financial advisor and contact Hoosier Lottery customer service" early and often for specific claim instructions says the Hoosier Lottery. This gem of advice, obtained by WISH-TV, may just be the tip one needs before their rendezvous with destiny – or just their accountant. And lest we forget those who find the allure of gambling less than lucky, a helpline is there as a beacon at 1-800-994-8448. Just in case anyone's luck took the wrong turn down Lady Fortune's road.
