A lucky Galway Lotto player celebrated with a steak dinner and some impromptu generosity after becoming an overnight millionaire.
A Galway man claimed a staggering €1,005,000 prize which they won in the special EuroMillions ‘Ireland Only Raffle’ draw held on Friday, September 13.
The winner, who bought his ticket at Monaghan’s Centra and Circle K on Seamus Quirke Road in Westside, Co. Galway, said that Friday the 13th is now his new favourite date in the calendar.
Initially believing he had won €5,000; he was shocked to discover his prize was over €1 million!
He celebrated with a steak dinner, even surprising a couple dining nearby by covering their bill, as they shared how it was their first night out in months.
Looking forward to sharing his win with family in Roscommon, he’s also planning to purchase a holiday home in the sun.
