That means the lucky player may not have stuck around to find out the game's results. It's a Fantasy 5 ticket and the winning numbers were 11-12-20-27-29. The evening drawing was Tuesday, May 6, and the ticket is worth $111,834.05. Yes, you read that correctly, the prize includes five cents in change. The winner bought the ticket at Camp-A-Wyle, a recreational vehicle and mobile home park in Weeki Wachee, about a 55-mile drive north from Tampa. The camp has residential and rental lots for RV enthusiasts. Winners in Florida Lottery drawings have 180 days to collect their prizes, the state says. (It's 60 days for scratch-off games.) Fantasy 5 lets players pick five numbers between 1 and 36 in hopes of matching drawings that occur twice daily. Another option is to have the game pick the numbers for you. Tickets start at $1 and the overall odds of a top prize are 1 in 376,992. Many people can gamble or play games of chance without harm.
