Gregg Wise of Cloyne won $100,000 by matching six of the last seven ENCORE numbers in the June 22 LOTTO 6/49 draw.
The 62-year-old has played the lottery with OLG for nearly 30 years, always using Quick Pick and adding ENCORE.
“I stopped at our local variety store to check my tickets and couldn’t believe what I was seeing,” shared Gregg. “I called my wife into the store and got a little emotional.”
“I had to check my ticket at another store to make sure it was real. When the store clerk helped me out with the process, I was in disbelief! I am still feeling that disbelief today,” smiled Gregg. “You never expect it to happen to you.”
Gregg plans to use his winnings for home renovations and to share with his son.
The winning ticket was bought at North of 7 Restaurant in Plevna.
