$1,000,000 with Lotto MaxSweet dreams for a Laval resident as he finds out he won just before going to sleep!
Montréal, August 17, 2023 — Laval resident Dionysios Pappas recently had a most remarkable evening. Just as he was getting ready to go to bed, he checked the July 21 Lotto Max results and was stunned to see his usual combination among those that had won $1,000,000! The lucky winner immediately gave his wife the great news. “She didn’t believe me... Even my kids thought I was joking!” he said when he claimed his prize. He plans on sharing half the prize with them.
The winning ticket was purchased at the Dépanneur 7 Jours on Boulevard Samson. The retailer will receive a 1% commission of $10,000.
