$47 Million Florida Lottery Ticket Sold in Hollywood

A Hollywood Lotto player struck it rich with a $47 million jackpot, lottery officials said Thursday.

The winning ticket matched all six Florida Lotto numbers. The winning Florida Lotto numbers selected Wednesday: 10-12-23-34-38-53.

The ticket was sold at the Stop N Shop at 2960 Taft Street.

Beside the actual lottery winner, no one was happier Thursday than the Stop n Shop owner, who goes by Morocco.

“Should I sing for ya’ll for something," said Morocco, who found out his cut of the $47 million for owning the store where the ticket was sold is $180,000.

A total of 28 tickets matched five numbers to win $4,602 each; 1,631 tickets matched four numbers for $67.50 each; and 32,322 tickets matched three numbers for $5 each.
 
The next jackpot is on Saturday.
