A lottery player hit the jackpot — and is set to take home a life-changing prize.
The player bought a Jackpot Triple Play ticket that matched all the numbers picked in the Aug. 13 drawing, making it worth $500,000, according to the Florida Lottery.
The winning numbers: 15-21-29-33-36-37.
The lucky ticket was sold at a gas station in Ocala, a roughly 75-mile drive northwest from Orlando. It came from the Diamond Oil gas station on Southwest 91st Avenue, lottery officials wrote on their website and in a news release.
Tickets for the Jackpot Triple Play game start at $1. The winner chose the Quick Pick option, meaning a lottery machine randomly selected at least some of the ticket numbers.
As of Aug. 14, the lucky ticket holder hadn’t cashed in on the $500,000 prize. Winners in the state have about six months to claim their prizes, according to drawing game rules.
