PITTSBURG — Maybe they came back on Wednesday to pick up something to help celebrate the big win.
The person who purchased Tuesday night’s Fantasy 5 lottery game-winning jackpot ticket — worth $166,152 — at Vintage Liquors, 1339 Buchanan Rd., didn’t immediately step forward to say.
The winning numbers were 3, 5, 30, 32 and 37.
Store owner Ajmer Sandhu said in a phone interview Wednesday he was aware the ticket had been sold there, but said he does not know yet who the winner is.
Nonetheless he is very happy for them, he added. “Of, course,” he said.
He said the store has had some big winners in the past, including at least two people who purchased Scratchers game tickets worth more than $100,000.
Tuesday’s winner has 180 days from the day of the draw to collect their prize.
Fantasy 5 is held every night of the week. Wednesday night’s jackpot will be at least $70,000.
