Flagler St.; a Murphy USA station at 8980 Pensacola Blvd. in Pensacola; and the machine spitting out a free Quick Pick ticket at a Miramar Speedway station, 12461 Miramar Pkwy.

Wednesday evening’s Fantasy 5 numbers — 3, 15, 21, 33, 36 — were picked by a player at a Fort Lauderdale Publix, 3400 N. Federal Hwy. Having sole possession of the jackpot makes that ticket worth $109,826.

These tickets must be cashed at one of the nine Florida Lottery district offices. The Miami office is at 14621 Oak Ln. in Miami Lakes, can be called at 305-364-3080 and emailed at [email protected].
