OAKVILLE RETIREE WINS $250,000 TOP PRIZE WITH INSTANT BINGO MULTIPLIER
Toronto, ON – BINGO! Gordon R. of Oakville won a $250,000 top prize with INSTANT BINGO MULTIPLIER (Game #3087).
Gordon, a retiree, said playing the lottery is one of his favourite pastimes and he’s always been a fan of INSTANT games. “INSTANT BINGO is my favourite. I find it fun to play through,” he shared while at the OLG Prize Centre in Toronto to collect his windfall.
The 72-year-old said he likes to play his tickets while enjoying his coffee on Friday mornings. One day, he was following his usual routine when he uncovered a big win. “In my head, I thought it must be a mistake. When I scanned my ticket on the OLG app, I gasped! I felt elated.”
Gordon immediately called his sister to share the big news, even though it hadn’t fully sunk in yet.
With his winnings, he plans to upgrade his vehicle.
INSTANT BINGO MULTIPLIER is available for $10 a play and the top prize is $250,000. Odds of winning any prize are 1 in 3.59. Visit the INSTANT page on OLG.ca for more information on this and other great games.
