Winning $1 million from the Florida Lottery? Not bad. Winning $2 million? That’s something special. Winning $15 million from a Florida Lottery scratch-off ticket? Now this is what people dream about.

40-year-old Roberto Lamboy, Jr., of Haines City, won a $15 million top prize from the “Billion Dollar Gold Rush Supreme” scratch-off game. He claimed his prize at the Lottery Headquarters in Tallahassee. Lamboy took his prize as a lump-sum payment of $13,200,000.

The ticket was purchased at Race Trac, 2001 West Vine Street in Kissimmee. The store will receive a $30,000 bonus for selling the winning ticket.

“The Billion Dollar Gold Rush Supreme” is a $30 scratch-off game. There were 4 $15 million top prizes available. All four have been claimed. There were also 24 $1 million prizes, one of which still remains.

Winning that kind of money would open so many possibilities. Imagine contacting a realtor and saying ” I want you to show me the house of my dreams”. Or how the call to your Travel Agent would sound when you book that around-the-world trip to see all the places you have dreamed of experiencing.
