SAN FRANCISCO — Someone who played the Fantasy 5 lottery game at a store here won $165,138 Tuesday night, officials said.
The unknown player was the only one statewide to pick all five game numbers, which were 3, 5, 23, 32 and 38.
The ticket was purchased at the Kwik & Convenient store, 600 Monterey Blvd. in the Sunnyside district.
A store employee said in a telephone interview Wednesday morning he had not been aware the ticket was sold there or who purchased it. Nonetheless, he said, “I am very happy for them.”
The player has 180 days from the day of the draw to claim their winnings.
Fantasy 5 is played every night of the week. Wednesday’s minimum jackpot was to be at least $71,000, officials said.
