Saturday\u2019s big-money Florida Lottery jackpot win involved a double rarity.<\/p>\n

Rare that two players beat the 1-in-292,201,338 odds to split a Powerball jackpot, and rare that those odds get beaten two drawings in a row.<\/p>\n

Nobody won either Fantasy 5 jackpot. And the Florida Lotto top prize for Wednesday\u2019s drawing will be $21.25 million \u2014 that\u2019s actually more than Saturday\u2019s Powerball jackpot, restarted at $20 million after players in Indiana and Kansas hit all the necessary numbers Wednesday<\/a>.<\/p>\n

On Saturday, two players had tickets with 25, 37, 42, 52, 65 and a Powerball of 14. One player was in Texas. The other bought a Quick Pick ticket at La Caribe\u00f1a Restaurante Mini Market, 131 Buena Ventura Blvd. in Kissimmee. Each ticket is worth $10 million.<\/p>\n

According to the Florida Lottery website, winning tickets over $1 million must be cashed at Florida Lottery headquarters in Tallahassee or a district office. The Orlando district office is at 1241 State Rd. 436 in Casselberry, and can be reached at 407-788-2202 or ORLRC@flalottery.com.<\/p>\n
