Two Georgia lottery players tried their luck — and both hit the jackpot.

The players each won a $141,559 Fantasy 5 jackpot after matching all five numbers drawn Thursday, April 3, according to the Georgia Lottery.

One ticket was sold at a BP Food Mart in Marietta, about a 20-mile drive northwest from downtown Atlanta, officials said. The other ticket was sold at a USA Food Mart in Columbus.

The winning numbers were 7-13-29-30-35, results show. Both players beat odds of 1-in-850,668 to snag the top prize, according to the lottery’s website.

Winners in Georgia have 180 days to claim prizes for draw games and are encouraged to sign the back of their ticket, the Georgia Lottery said.

Many people can gamble or play games of chance without harm. However, for some, gambling is an addiction that can ruin lives and families.

If you or a loved one shows signs of gambling addiction, you can seek help by calling the national gambling hotline at 1-800-522-4700 or visiting the National Council on Problem Gambling website.
