MOUNT BRYDGES RESIDENT WINS $1 MILLION TOP PRIZE WITH INSTANT MILLONAIRE MULTIPLIER

Toronto, ON Connor Weir of Mount Brydges won a $1 million top prize with INSTANT MILLIONAIRE MULTIPLIER (Game #2471).

Connor, who works in the skilled trades, is not one to play the lottery on a regular basis. He recently saw a sole INSTANT MILLIONAIRE MULTIPLIER ticket in the store’s display and thought it looked interesting and fun, so he decided to give it a try. This decision would soon lead Connor to his first big win!

“When I played my ticket, I didn’t really understand what was going on. I thought, ‘I must be reading it wrong,” Connor recounted, while visiting the OLG Prize Centre in Toronto to pick up his windfall. “I went online to get more information about the game and discovered there was an OLG app that I could use to check the outcome of my ticket. I downloaded the app and scanned my ticket right away. When I saw the ‘Big Winner’ message and the prize amount, I was numb with disbelief!”

“I feel so grateful for this win,” Connor beamed. “I never expected anything like this to happen to me, and I’m thankful for what it means for me and my family. I work very hard for a living, and this win presents many opportunities. It’s a game-changer!”

“I plan to use this win to enjoy a few vacations with my wife and to focus on starting to build our family,” Connor concluded with a big smile.

MILLIONAIRE MULTIPLIER is available for $100 a play and the top prize is $1 million. Odds of winning any prize are 1 in 3.72.

The winning ticket was purchased at Vern’s Variety on Adelaide Road in Mount Brydges.
