Victoria couple strike it rich with $35M lottery win – BC | 24CA News
A Victoria couple are $35 million richer, after hitting the jackpot within the June 6 Lotto Max draw.
Lahsen Rezrazi and Debbie Ramsay have been introduced with their multi-million-dollar cheque on Friday, for hitting all seven numbers within the draw. They’re splitting the $70 million prize with a winner in Ontario.
Ramsay stated her it was greater than every week after the draw earlier than Rezrari went in to scan their tickets they usually realized they received.
“He won $10, a free play, and then $35 million. It was a bit of a shocker,” she stated.
“I didn’t believe him. I thought he was playing a joke on me.”
Rezrari stated his spouse was so skeptical she made him show they actually received.
“So we went to store near our home and she checked the ticket four times, she wanted to cry. I said no, we got to keep calm.”
Despite the large win, Rezrari plans to return to work on Monday, whereas Ramsay plans to retire.
The couple intend to purchase a brand new Mercedes camper van and drive it throughout Canada, the place they’ll share a few of the wealth with their household.
