    A lottery player is holding a ticket worth nearly $120,000 that was sold at a Publix in Florida.

    The Fantasy 5 ticket hit the $117,326 jackpot in the Aug. 14 evening drawing, according to the Florida Lottery.

    It came from the Publix at Summerfield Crossings in Riverview, which is part of the Tampa Bay area, records show.

    The ticket buyer allowed the computer to randomly generate five numbers, which can range from 1 to 36, according to the Florida Lottery. The lucky winner beat the 1-in-376,992 odds of matching all five numbers to land the top prize.

    Those numbers were 13-15-16-21-27.

    Fantasy 5 drawings happen twice a day.

    Another Fantasy 5 ticket worth $108,000 — sold at a Sarasota convenience store — remains unclaimed as of Aug. 15, McClatchy News reported.

    Many people can gamble or play games of chance without harm. However, for some, gambling is an addiction that can ruin lives and families.

    If you or a loved one shows signs of gambling addiction, you can seek help by calling the national gambling hotline at 1-800-522-4700 or visiting the National Council on Problem Gambling website.
