Winnipeg man wins $1M prize from Lotto 6/49 draw
A Winnipeg man is $1 million richer after snagging the winning ticket of the Lotto 6/49 Gold Ball draw back at the end of May.
Michael Kearney said he picked up a ticket at the same time as grabbing milk on his way home from work.
The draw was on May 31, but it was a while before he realized he had the winning ticket.
'It sat in my wallet for quite a while before I remembered to check,' Kearney said in an interview with Lotto Spot. 'When I scanned it, I thought I had won the Extra, then I realized it was a lot more than that.'
With his winnings, Kearney said he wants to buy a house for his family and start a trust fund for his kids.
'Christmas this year will be a little different, that's for sure.'
Kearney bought his ticket at the Family Foods at 1881 Portage Avenue.
