Two lottery players pressed their luck — and both netted top prizes in Georgia.
The lucky winners hit the Fantasy 5 jackpot, each winning $189,714 in the drawing Thursday, Aug. 7, according to the Georgia Lottery’s website.
The tickets, one sold in Marietta and the other purchased online by a Sandy Springs resident, matched all five numbers — 4-7-12-28-37.
Officials didn’t say if either winner has come forward as of Aug. 8.
McClatchy News reached out to the Georgia Lottery for more information and was awaiting a response.
Both players beat odds of 1 in 850,668 to snag the jackpot prize, according to the lottery’s website.
