A Publix shopper in Pembroke Pines just hit a sweet payday, walking away with nearly $110,000 from a Fantasy 5 win.
The lucky ticket was purchased at the Publix Super Market in Village Square on N. Hiatus Road. The winning numbers for the June 8 evening draw were 6, 8, 14, 17, and 24—picked by the player themselves instead of using a quick-pick option. That choice paid off big, beating tough 1-in-376,992 odds to land the top prize of $109,962.58.
What makes it even more interesting is the timing—this marks the third Fantasy 5 win in Broward County in just five days, with recent winning tickets also popping up in Sunrise and Coral Springs. Luck seems to be running hot in the area.
Fantasy 5 drawings take place twice daily, giving players plenty of chances to try their luck.
Winners in South Florida can claim prizes at lottery offices in Miami or West Palm Beach.
As always, while many enjoy lottery games responsibly, it’s important to remember that gambling can become harmful for some individuals and may impact lives and families if not kept in control.
