SANTA ROSA COUNTY, Fla. ( WMBB ) – Another Panhandle resident struck it big by playing the Florida Lottery this week.

According to the Florida Lottery, James Wise, 60, of Pace, claimed a $1,000,000 ticket from the $1,000,000 A Year for Life Spectacular scratch-off game. Wise chose to receive his payment as a one-time, lump-sum payment of $640,000.

Wise purchased his winning ticket from a Publix located in Pace.

This comes after a Panama City woman recently won $1,000,000 from the same scratch-off game on Wednesday.
