It really hasn't set in yet!
Joseph Ollenberger and Ryan Kennedy won $293,334.10 on LOTTO MAX on the September 17 draw!
The Warman couple said they noticed there had been a winner in Saskatchewan and had to double check their ticket.
“Ryan scanned it on the Lotto Spot app because I didn’t believe it!” Ollenberger said. “He was in shock when he saw the amount!”
“I told my sister right away,” Kennedy said. “Joseph is being pretty hush-hush about it.”
The duo said their plan is to pay their mortgage and officially own their home.
“It’s crazy because it’s more than we need to pay it off!” Kennedy said. “It’s a great feeling.”
“It really hasn’t set in yet,” admitted Ollenberger. “Once we pay it all off, it’s a sigh of relief knowing we have that freedom.”
The winners purchased their LOTTO MAX ticket from Railway Gas at 225 Ave. B N in Saskatoon. They won their prize by correctly matching six out of seven numbers selected plus the Bonus number in the September 17 LOTTO MAX draw: 2, 4, 11, 16, 25, 29, and 47, and Bonus 34. They split the prize with a winning ticket that also correctly matched the same numbers in B.C. and one in Ontario.
