According to the Florida Lottery in a press release, Lisa Morelli played the $15,000,000 Gold Rush Special Edition Scratch-Off game.
She claimed her one-time, lump-sum winnings of $700,000 from the Florida Lottery headquarters in Tallahassee.
Morelli bought her winning ticket from a 7-Eleven on U.S. Highway 441 in Mount Dora, said the Florida Lottery. The retailer will be awarded $2,000 commission for selling Morelli the winning ticket.
