Randall Donison says he’s going to get himself a hefty prize as part of his recent lottery win.
Officials say he won $1 million in the 6-49 Lotto draw on March 30 and the winner said he was surprised by the news.
“I hadn’t even had my coffee yet!” Donison said in a news release.
“I’ll be honest, I never thought it would happen, and it didn’t look like mine [selection] numbers matched but I always double check on the Lotto Spot app.”
Officials said the win came from the Gold Ball jackpot on a ticket he bought at the Shell gas station at 3550 32 Ave. N.E.
“I started playing Lotto 6/49 before they had the Golden Ball and the extra jackpots,” he said. “I must have checked it at least 10 times on the app that day.
“It took a while before I realized, ‘Hey, this is legit!'”
Donison says the money is going to help him live a little easier as he plans to put some towards his mortgage and help some family members.
He also said he was going to treat himself with the money too.
“I guess I’m going to buy a nice steakhouse dinner!”
