BRUNSWICK SUBSTITUTE TEACHER WINS $272,000
June 13, 2008

ATLANTA – In less than a year, a Brunswick substitute teacher is a two-time Fantasy 5 winner. Geraldine Wilson, 61, matched all five winning numbers in the June 5 Fantasy 5 drawing and won a $272,147 top prize.

"I was watching the drawing, and by the time that last number dropped, I cried out," she said. "I had to pinch myself."

The grandmother of four won an $86,131 top prize playing Fantasy 5 in October 2007. She used her children and grandchildren's birthdays as her lucky numbers, she said.

Winning numbers from the June 5 Fantasy 5 drawing were: 7-17-23-35-37. Fast Fuel #0021, 310 Old Jesup Road in Brunswick, sold the winning combination. Wilson selected the numbers from an old Quik Pik ticket.

After her first win, Wilson contributed to family, friends and local organizations. With the second win, she plans to invest and anticipates taking a vacation.

"I want to go on a cruise," she said. "I want to treat myself without holding back."

Wilson, who has two adult children, said she will continue working at local elementary and junior high schools as a substitute teacher when school resumes this fall.

"I love my students, and I still want to be a part of their lives," she shared.
