One Oakland Park shopper’s quick grocery stop just turned into a six-figure payday. A Quick Pick ticket bought at a neighborhood Publix hit all five numbers in Saturday night’s Florida Fantasy 5 drawing, good for a $131,069 jackpot. The winning numbers were 5, 7, 15, 21 and 34, and this was the lone jackpot across the state’s draw games that night, sending a jolt of excitement from the Broward County store to Florida Lottery officials.
Ticket Traced to Oakland Park Publix
The lucky Quick Pick was sold at the Publix located at 950 E. Commercial Blvd. in Oakland Park, according to the Miami Herald. That store was the only spot in the region to produce a jackpot ticket in Saturday’s batch of Powerball, Florida Lotto and Fantasy 5 drawings, the Herald reports.
Numbers That Paid Out
The winning combination in the evening Fantasy 5 drawing was 5, 7, 15, 21 and 34, based on statewide results published by Florida Today. That set of numbers left one Quick Pick player holding a ticket worth $131,069 from Saturday’s game.
How to Claim
Prizes at this level have to be claimed in person at a Florida Lottery district office during normal business hours, with offices open Monday through Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m., the Miami Herald notes. The Herald also lists regional contacts for winners, including the Miami Lakes office at [email protected] or 305-364-3060 and the Palm Springs/Palm Beach office at [email protected] or 561-640-6190.
Publix's Local Streak
Publix supermarkets have been popping up again and again as the point of sale for Florida Lottery winners across South Florida in recent months, a trend local outlets have been tracking closely. Regional coverage from stations like Local 10 highlights several recent Fantasy 5 and other lottery wins linked to Publix locations, giving regular shoppers one more reason to double-check those slips.
What Players Should Do Next
Anyone who bought tickets for Saturday’s drawings might want to pull them back out and compare them to the official numbers, then contact the Florida Lottery for guidance on what comes next.
