LANSING, Mich. — A Kalamazoo County man recently claimed his prize of more than $733,000 in a Fantasy 5 drawing that took place back in June.
The 62-year-old won the $733,362 jackpot after matching all five numbers on June 19, according to the Michigan Lottery.
Those numbers were 07-15-30-37-38.
“I was running errands and saw the Fantasy 5 jackpot was up there, so I told myself I would purchase a ticket for the next drawing,” the winner says. "After thinking about it for a while, I made the last-minute decision to stop and purchase a ticket on my way home. When I checked my ticket a few days after the drawing and realized I’d won the jackpot, I couldn’t stop shaking! Winning is such a blessing.”
We’re told he purchased the winning ticket at Bronco Liquor in Kalamazoo.
Lottery officials say he plans to distribute his winnings among family members.
