Val Caron resident Daryl Glenn is $1 million richer after winning the Nov. 16 Lotto 6/49 Gold Ball Draw.
The retiree told OLGC prize centre staff in Toronto that he is a regular player of 6/49 and Lotto Max, but still couldn’t believe his luck.
“When I gave my ticket to the clerk and the machine shut down, I was in a state of shock,” he said in a news release. “My wife didn’t believe me!”
The great-grandfather plans on sharing his winnings with his family.
Lotto 6/49 offers two multi-million dollar jackpots every Wednesday and Saturday, for the same $3 per play.
The Classic Draw offers a fixed $5 million jackpot for every draw, while the Gold Ball Draw guarantees a $1 million prize, or the growing jackpot that starts at $10 million and can exceed $60 million. Click here for more information about the new LOTTO 6/49.
