A Lalor Park grandfather says he’s shaking with shock this morning after hearing the unexpected news he’s woken up a Monday Lotto millionaire.
The Sydney resident held one of the two division one winning entries nationally in Monday & Wednesday Lotto draw 3876, drawn Monday 10 June 2019. He takes home the guaranteed division one prize of $1,000,000.

“Oh you are kidding me!
“Thank you very much! Well isn’t this wonderful!
“You don’t know how much this means to me!
“One million dollars you say? Oh god! I can’t believe it.
“Heavens above! I’m shaking with shock. This is wonderful!”
The generous grandfather said his large family was at the very top of his Lotto List.
“I have a number of children and grandchildren that I will certainly be helping out,” he said.
“They won’t believe me when I tell them I’ve won the lottery!
“I really don’t know what to say! Gee whiz!”
