Southampton Resident Celebrates $100,000 Lotto Max Win with New Muskoka Chairs

Southampton resident James Greenaway had an exhilarating start to the summer season when he scored a remarkable $100,000 during a Lotto Max draw earlier this month. As a dedicated lottery player, the 56-year-old project control specialist often engages in various games like Lotto Max, Lotto 6/49, The Bigger Spin, and Lighting Lotto, always including the Encore option.

The moment of triumph arrived when James checked his ticket using the OLG app. The realization of his win left him and his wife in a state of shock, followed by jubilant dancing when the winning music played.

Sharing the news with his family proved to be a delightful challenge as their initial response was skepticism. However, after some convincing, their joy overflowed. James expressed his gratitude, saying, "There were winners in this community, and I knew it was possible, but I never thought I'd win this big of a prize. You can't describe it. It's surreal."

With his newfound winnings, James intends to prioritize financial management. Additionally, he plans to indulge himself and his wife by purchasing brand new Muskoka chairs, embracing the essence of relaxation and enjoyment. The winning ticket was bought at Vanderwerf's Your Independent Grocer on Goderich Street in Port Elgin, Ontario.
