Alabama man wins $150,000 a year for life in Florida LotteryReply
These gas stations at the Florida Alabama line are always packed with Alabama residents. There is one store right after you cross over Alabama and Florida at Cottonwood, where they actually have tables set up inside and people do lottery workouts in notebooks. If I had more time, I would sit there over the course of a week and interview people to find out their tricks and ways to play the lottery. That is a fun store. Congratulations to Mr. Thomas!

California sells the most tickets and combined with Florida, NY, Georgia, and Texas, one of those states is more likely to sell the jackpot winner.

$925 MILLION: Powerball lottery jackpot nears billion-dollar milestoneReply

Florida winner of $1.6 billion Mega Millions jackpot steps forward to claim prizeReply
As stated in the article, a Florida Lottery official directly confirmed that they are not sharing the info at this time. That PDF may totally be correct, and the Florida Lottery may have mistakenly published it, but that cannot be confirmed without official word from the lottery. It is also possible that the PDF is incorrect. That said, of course they almost certainly took the cash option. But as a journalist to write that as fact in a published article without confirmation would be irrespon

$925 MILLION: Powerball lottery jackpot nears billion-dollar milestoneReply
They took the cash option according to The Jackpot Winners with Retailers Information report available for download on The Florida Lottery's MegaMillions page. If it was claimed by a Trust, I doubt the general public will ever know the name(s) of the winner(s). The Jackpot winners Report might be updated after 90 days, but if it was claimed via trust that wont tell the public all that much. Although The Florida Lottery certainly could, after 90 days I doubt they'll all of a sudden decide to

Claiming it via a trust or llc does not change the Florida anonymity rules. Only 90 days.

$1.58 billion Mega Millions lottery winner has two weeks left to claim cash optionReply
There have been five MM jackpot winers in Florida since 2014. Three of those five were claimed by either a LLC or a Trust and all took the cash option. Those trusts/LLC's are named Pineapple Trust, Secret 007 LLC, and Cobie and Seamus Trust . One week after (on 8/15/23) the 1.5 Billion dollar win in Neptune Beach, another jackpot win of 30 million was won in Jacksonville and it too is still unclaimed at this time. I have to believe The Florida Lottery has informed the winners of both ja

It will be claimed on the very last day. You'd have to be an idiot to lose a ticket purchased in Florida bc Florida has never sold a losing ticket.
