Six Craigieburn mates share $1 million TattsLotto win!
Persistence has paid off for a group of Craigieburn mates who scored $1 million in the weekend’s TattsLotto draw after buying lottery tickets together for almost a decade.
“Thank you so much!” one of the winning men laughed.
“I found out on Saturday night straight after the draw. I couldn’t believe it! I thought ‘it’s actually a winner! What the hell!’.
“This isn’t just my win, it’s actually a syndicate!
“There’s six of us in it – we’re all mates. Most of us have been buying tickets together when it’s a big jackpot for close to a decade.
“We only just started this new TattsLotto syndicate a few months ago.
“I called each of them when I found out on Saturday. None of them believed me at first, so I had to take a screenshot of my ticket on my online The Lott account and send it to them.
“I just kept saying to them, ‘no, we really have won! I’m not kidding!’
“They were so, so happy! Most of them went into a bit of shock, I think.
“When restrictions ease more, we are going to have a big party together to celebrate.”
When asked how they planned to enjoy their million-dollar prize, the private syndicate leader said it had come at a good time.
“They all have already begun making plans for their share of the prize,” he shared.
“I am planning to invest mine and I think some of my friends will use it for their future retirement.
“It’ll certainly come in handy for all of us.”
Their winning marked System 8 entry was purchased online at thelott.com – Australia’s official lotteries.
