Toronto, ON – BINGO! Cynthia Sherman of Orillia won a $250,000 top prize with INSTANT BINGO MULTIPLIER (Game #3083).

“I was staying at a hotel, visiting a friend, when I decided to play my ticket. I then took it to a nearby store to have it checked. When I realized I had won the top prize, I was left in disbelief,” Cynthia recalled, while visiting the OLG Prize Centre in Toronto to pick up her windfall. “It’s been a month since then and I still can’t believe it,” she smiled.
“I’ve shared the news with close friends and family. Everyone has been so lovely and happy for me. Winning is an unreal feeling; it’s life altering! I never thought this would happen to me,” Cynthia concluded.
