One of Tuesday’s two big lottery winning tickets was bought in South Florida
Tuesday’s major money Florida Lottery draw games — Jackpot Triple Play, Mega Millions, Fantasy 5 — produced two big winners from one jackpot.
The jackpot they split wasn’t the Mega Millions top prize, so that’ll be at $604 million for Friday’s drawing. For those who like to play the draw games with the gargantuan jackpots, Wednesday’s Powerball pull will be worth $434 million.

Tuesday, the Jackpot Triple Play and Fantasy 5 midday draw jackpots rolled over, but the Fantasy 5 evening draw came up 6, 9, 12, 22 and 35. Those numbers came out of the heads of players at a Lauderdale Lakes Shell, 3101 N. State Rd. 7, and The Ridge Market & Cafe, 1124 Buckhead Dr., in Okeechobee. Each ticket is worth $53,418.
