RETIRED WELDER LINKS $282,000 FANTASY 5 PRIZE
November 3, 2009
ATLANTA – A retired welder is linked to a Georgia Lottery win. James Harwood, 67, won a $282,219 jackpot prize after matching all five winning numbers from the Oct. 17 Fantasy 5 drawing.
Plaza Video & Lottery, 115 Chickamauga Ave. in Rossville, sold the winning Quik Pik ticket. A resident of Evensville, Tenn., Harwood said he was visiting his son, who lives in Georgia, when he purchased the ticket.
Winning numbers from the Oct. 17 Fantasy 5 drawing were: 4-13-20-22-36.
He discovered his win after checking the results on the Georgia Lottery's Web site.
"It was a big surprise," Harwood said. "It still feels like a dream."
A father of two adult children with his wife, Delores, Harwood intends to pay off bills and share a portion of the prize with his one grandchild and one great-child.
Georgia Lottery retailers selling winning jackpot Fantasy 5 tickets receive a retailer incentive bonus of $2,000. The retailer incentive bonus increases by $2,000 each time Fantasy 5 rolls. If more than one winning jackpot ticket is sold, the retailers selling the jackpot winning tickets will share the bonus. Plaza Video & Lottery will receive a $4,000 retailer incentive bonus.
