An Ascot Park man was left in shock and scrambling for a carpark this morning when an official from The Lott called with the thrilling news that he’d won $100,000 in today’s Lucky Lotteries draw.
The Adelaide resident held the 1st Prize winning entry in Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot draw 10951, drawn Friday 28 March 2025 and pocketed $100,000.
The mind-blown winner shared he was hoping to retire next year, and that his newfound treasure would go a long way in turning that dream into a reality.
“Oh my gosh! This is crazy!” he gasped when an official from The Lott revealed his prize.
“Wow! I was circling a carpark when you called. I just rushed into the first free spot I could see to check my ticket.
“I want to retire next year, and I tell you what, this is going to help make it possible.
“I feel good. I feel really good. I couldn’t ask for more.
“It’s my first time ever winning anything like this.
“I’m a very happy person right now. I have to admit, I’m a little mind-blown too.
“I can’t wait to share the news with my wife and my brother. They’re going to be absolutely over the moon.”
His winning entry of ten random numbers was purchased via The Lott app – the official home of Australia’s lotteries.

Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot and Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot are raffle-style games, which means there is a set number of tickets in each draw. As each ticket number is unique there is no sharing of prizes.
Each game has two draws – one that determines the winning numbers and one that determines the jackpot number. If the jackpot number matches one of the winning numbers, then the Jackpot Prize is won. If the jackpot number does not match one of the winning numbers, the Jackpot Prize will climb for the next draw.
Tickets can be purchased at any licenced lottery outlet, online from thelott.com or via The Lott mobile app.
