As of Tuesday afternoon, officials with the Florida Lottery said no one had claimed the $244.468.47 winning Fantasy 5 ticket that was purchased Friday at the State Line O’Yes Lotto at 11331 Highway 97. Lottery officials said the ticket was a “Quick Pick” with numbers randomly chosen by the lottery machine.

Only one ticket matched the winning numbers:  13-21-25-28-36.

There were 287 tickets with four matching numbers worth $137 each. There were 9,650 tickets matching three numbers that were worth $11 each, and 100,219  had two numbers for a free Quick Pick ticket.

    Yes, by all means you should tithe, but some churches would refuse the money, so I would just tithe it in another way, maybe to needy families, homeless people.
    Either way, God would see that it was from the heart.

    Would you tithe the money even if it was won by playing the lottery? Conflict of interest?

    Angi not everyone who wins large amounts of lottery money would agree with you that it’s lucky. Some say it’s bad luck, family and friends turn on you, some get divorced, some get robbed….I just hope they need it and use it wisely.
