A Mount Isa grandmother has received a shock phone call this afternoon with news she won division one in the weekend’s Super 66 draw on a bonus ticket.
The Queensland entry was the only division one winning entry across Australia in Super 66 draw 3969, drawn Saturday 3 August 2019. She takes home the entire division one prize pool of $140,707.90.
Sharing her excitement with a Golden Casket official this afternoon, the woman revealed she’d never played Super 66 before.
“How much?” she screamed with joy.
“Really? Oh my goodness!
“Oh my god. Thank you. Thank you.
“I don’t usually play Super 66 but I won a bonus ticket when I played Saturday Gold Lotto.
“I am just stoked. Thank you lord.
“Oh wow! I don’t believe. I do not believe it. I can’t usually even win an argument!
“I think I may have to go lie down!”
The winner said she’d enjoy every moment of her unexpected windfall.
“It will go towards some home renovations,” she said.
“This prize will go so far! It will help me so much.
“Thank you! This is beautiful.”
