Woman from British Columbia won Lotto Max jackpot worth almost $475k

A lucky woman from British Columbia named Victoria's Kerri Butterworth  won a whopping sum of $474,526.70 Lotto Max jackpot in Saturday’s drawing. 

The winning Scratch-Off ticket was sold at the Westshore Town Centre on Jacklin Rd. The store will receive a bonus of $4000 for selling the winning Scratch-Off ticket. 

Butterworth shocked her daughter with the exciting news, but at first, she thought that she was in trouble!

Now that she has some extra money, Butterworth is planning a trip to see a Yankees baseball game. She's also going to pay down her mortgage and help out her parents as well as her daughters.

Lotto Max is a Canadian lottery game coordinated by the Interprovincial Lottery Corporation, as one of the country's three national lottery games.
