Officials said Fitton's prize winnings came from a drawing on Sept. 14. 

The Mega Millions website says the chances of winning any prizes from a Mega Millions Florida lottery ticket is 1 in 24. The chances of winning all five white balls slims down to 1 in 12,607,306.

Fitton purchased the tickets at Prip Mart, at 299 West Camino Real in Boca Raton. The retailer will receive a $10,000 bonus commission for selling the two $2 million winning Mega Millions with Megaplier tickets.
