CLEARWATER MAN CLAIMS $1 MILLION PRIZE IN THE $10,000,000 WORLD CLASS CASH SCRATCH-OFF GAME

Posted on April 20, 2017

TALLAHASSEE – The Florida Lottery announces that Randy Johnson, 61, of Clearwater, claimed a $1 million prize in the $10,000,000 WORLD CLASS CASH Scratch-Off game at Florida Lottery Headquarters in Tallahassee. He chose to receive his winnings as a one-time, lump-sum payment of $748,000.00.
Johnson said he wants his prize winnings to benefit others. “I really just want to use this money to pay it forward,” he explained.
Johnson purchased his winning ticket from Publix, located at 525 South Belcher Road in Clearwater. The retailer will receive a $2,000 bonus commission for selling the winning Scratch-Off ticket.
The new $25 game, $10,000,000 WORLD CLASS CASH, launched in February and features more than $549 million in total cash prizes, including two top prizes of $10 million and 46 prizes of $1 million! Overall odds of winning are one-in-2.89.
Scratch-Off games are an important part of the Lottery’s portfolio of games, comprising approximately 65 percent of ticket sales and generating more than $734 million for the Educational Enhancement Trust Fund (EETF) in fiscal year 2015-16.
