Big wins are lighting up Georgia—and two lucky players just hit it big in a major way.
In one standout moment, a Duluth shopper walked away with a jaw-dropping $1,725,995 Fantasy 5 jackpot from the drawing held on April 22. That prize ranks among the largest ever for the game—definitely not your everyday win.
🎯 Here’s what happened:
- The winning numbers were 11, 18, 34, 39, 40
- The ticket was bought at a supermarket on Buford Highway in Duluth
- It’s officially the sixth-largest Fantasy 5 prize in history
But that’s not the only celebration going on…
💸 Another big winner joins the party
An Acworth player scored a massive $1 million prize from the Millionaire Maker scratch-off game. The ticket was picked up at a Chevron Food Mart, and the winner chose the annuity payout option, locking in long-term earnings.
📚 More than just luck—there’s impact
Beyond the excitement, these wins contribute to something bigger. Georgia Lottery officials confirm that proceeds from games like Fantasy 5 and scratch-offs help fund education programs across the state—so every ticket plays a small role in supporting schools.
⏰ Quick game facts:
- Fantasy 5 drawings happen every night
- Jackpots start at $125,000
- The prize keeps growing until someone matches all five numbers
Bottom line? Big wins, life-changing moments, and a positive impact on education—Georgia’s lottery scene is delivering on all fronts.
