NSW Lottery Player Buys a Ticket Out of the Blue, Wins AU$2.5M

An incredibly fortunate player from New South Wales, Australia will purchase a brand-new car for his parents after scoring a multi-million-dollar win from Saturday Lotto. The man, whose name was not disclosed, visited the lottery headquarters to claim his prize recently.

Saturday Lotto Draw 4499 Produces a Total of Eight Winning Entries
The win came from Saturday Lotto draw 4499 at the end of August. Purchasing a ticket from North Strathfield News Agency at 189 Concord Road in North Strathfield, the lucky lottery player scored one out of the eight division one winning entries for an AU$2.5 million ($1.66 million) payday.

The fortunate player’s win was one out of two winning entries for New South Wales for that particular draw. On the other hand, four other entries from Victoria, as well as one from Western Australia and one in Queensland all won an AU$2.5 million ($1.66 million) each from Saturday Lotto draw 4499. The draw’s winning numbers were 4, 6, 15, 20, 32, 39, while the supplementary numbers were 1 and 30.

While usually, the Lott notifies winners who have purchased their tickets online, the win of the North Strathfield man wasn’t registered as he purchased a ticket via a retailer. In such cases, Lottery officials expect the winners to check their tickets and contact them to redeem their prizes.

The New South Welshman Purchased a Ticket Out of the Blue
Asked about the time he bought the Saturday Lotto ticket, the North Strathfield man revealed that he decided to play out of the blue. “I walked past the news agency one day and I decided to randomly pop in and buy myself a ticket because I had some spare time on my hands,” he revealed.

Then, several days after the lucky man purchased his ticket, he went to check it. The teller in the store where he checked the ticket told the man that he should visit the Lott’s headquarters. “I started to panic, and I was so confused. I wasted no time and went straight there,” said the lottery player.

Once at the Lottery headquarters, the man was shocked to realize that he had just won AU$2.5 million ($1.66 million). “I couldn’t believe the news,” the man admitted.

While the latest windfall is always on the man’s man, he said he hasn’t told anyone, yet. Still, the fortunate player said that he plans to buy a car for his parents as they long wanted and needed a new vehicle. “It will be such a good surprise,” said the fortunate player.
