A Rockhampton man’s first day back at work has taken a pleasant turn after he received a phone call from lottery officials revealing his $100,000 win in today’s Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot draw.
The Central Queenslander won the guaranteed 1st Prize of $100,000 in Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot draw 10744, drawn Monday 9 January 2023.
As well as winning the 1st Prize, the cheery man scored a consolation prize of $1,000, bolstering his total windfall to $101,000.
“That’s awesome!” he cheered when an official from The Lott called to confirm his win straight after the draw.
“This is definitely the most I’ve ever won.
“What a nice surprise on my first day back at work for 2023!
“I wasn’t having the best morning as it’s always tough getting back into it after a holiday, but this has changed everything!
“Initially, I thought it was a scam call, but I’m glad I followed it up and looked at my ticket.
“This was a free bonus ticket too! The wins keep on coming!
“I’ve got to go pinch myself.”
