Lisa Rovazzi of Newmarket has that “6/49 feeling” after winning a LOTTO 6/49 second prize worth $108,179.80 in the November 21, 2020 draw.
"I play the lottery every week. My three favourite games to play are LOTTO MAX, LOTTO 6/49 and LOTTARIO," shared Lisa.
Lisa checked her ticket using the OLG Lottery App. "When the words 'Big Winner' popped up on the screen, I thought it was an advertisement," she laughed. "I tried to close it! I didn't think it was real!"
The 53-year-old IT analyst called her sister to tell her the news about her big win right away. "She was freaking out!"
Lisa plans to save her winnings go on a vacation when it's safe. "I am very appreciative of this blessing," Lisa concluded.
In accordance with government-issued lockdown measures to help prevent the spread of COVID-19, OLG is currently limiting the number of in-person prize claim appointments at the OLG Prize Centre in Toronto to only those that require a face-to-face interview. Customers with prizes over $50,000 are asked to call 1-800-387-0098 to discuss available prize claim options. Prize claims up to $49,999.90 should continue to be submitted by mail.

The winning ticket was purchased at Longo's on Wellington Street in Aurora.
