Published 11:00am 23 April 2024
An Albany Creek man has been left dumbfounded and lost for words after hearing he had scored $200,000 in a Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot draw.
He held the winning entry in Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot draw Monday but was unaware of his windfall until The Lott called with the incredible news.
“Thank you very much! That’s wonderful!” he laughed. “I don’t even know what to say. I’m flabbergasted!
“Wow! Sorry, my brain’s not working right now. My wife is here with me; she’s in shock right now, too. This is amazing.”
When asked how he planned to use his newfound treasure, the joyous man confessed he was too surprised to think of anything immediately.
“Honestly, I don’t even know right now,” he said. “You’ve caught me completely off guard!
“We are doing some travelling across Australia so perhaps we’ll do something nice while we’re away.”
The winning entry of four random numbers was bought via The Lott app – the official home of Australia’s lotteries.
The Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot prize is now $17.08 million for draw 1664, while the Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot prize is now $1.02 million for draw 10848.
In 2023, 117 Lucky Lotteries 1st Prize and Jackpot winning entries across Australia won more than $20.6 million.
Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot and Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot are raffle-style games, which means there is a set number of tickets in each draw. As each ticket number is unique there is no sharing of prizes.
Tickets can be purchased at any licenced lottery outlet, online from thelott.com or via The Lott mobile app.
