Someone is $3.8 million richer for buying the winning ticket in a Georgia Lottery game, officials said Friday.
But the new millionaire has not come forward.
A convenience store in Macon, ABC Food Mart, sold the winning ticket in Thursday’s Jumbo Bucks Lotto drawing, according to lottery officials. The winning numbers were 8, 12, 23, 24, 30 and 31.
The winner has 180 days from the draw date to claim the prize.
Jumbo Bucks Lotto drawings are Monday and Thursday at 11 p.m., officials said. Monday’s jackpot is an estimated $1 million.
The store’s co-owner, Che Lee, told the Telegraph he thinks the winner is a regular customer. Lee said he’d let the man know the next time he comes in.
Lee said business picked up Friday as word got out that his store sold the winning ticket.
“It’s a lot of people coming in and asking who won $3.8 million,” Lee said. “We think it’s some older man. We don’t know his name, but we know his face.”
