A man waited till Monday to tell his co-workers about their big win

It’s going to be a lively conversation at the water cooler after a group of coworkers won the lottery.

Made up of 10 members from Ontario, the group has been playing the lottery together for a few years and often buy tickets whenever there’s a sizeable jackpot.

“We started playing together about four years ago,” said group leader Avadis Jamjian, a North York resident.

“I bought our ticket and I checked it using the OLG App the next evening.”

Jamjian was stunned to learn that they had actually won in the May 27 Lotto Max draw and their total winnings was a Maxmillions prize worth $500,000.

“My brain couldn’t process the prize amount,” recalled Jamjian. “I was in pure shock!”
