ONTARIO LOTTERY AND GAMING
*************************
Susana Faughnan of Grimsby has that “6/49 feeling” after winning a LOTTO 6/49 second prize worth $69,111.70 in the September 15, 2021 LOTTO 6/49 draw.
Susana, a 50-year-old mother of two, said she loves to play LOTTO 6/49 and LOTTO MAX. “I went to purchase a ticket for the next draw and checked this one at the same time,” she shared while at the OLG Prize Centre in Toronto to pick up her winnings. “I was in total disbelief – I had to check it twice!”
She plans to pay some bills and help her daughter with her education. “It’s just amazing – it still feels unbelievable.”
