Local NewsParis man wins $100,000 on instant ticket

Roger Frigault of Paris is $100,000 richer after winning the top prize with INSTANT BLACKJACK CASINO.

“I’ve been a regular lottery player for 10 years,” shared Roger, while at the OLG Prize Centre in Toronto to collect his winnings. “I typically play LOTTO 6/49 and LOTTO MAX in a group, and I enjoy the INSTANT games.”

Roger, a retiree, was playing his ticket in the store when he realized he won $100,000. “I thought there was a mistake. I took it to the clerk and they started freaking out. I was happy but in disbelief,” he said. “I went home to tell my wife and she was so happy!”

Roger plans to share his winnings with his wife. “We will travel to visit family, do some renovations to the house and I will pay for my wife’s new car,” he smiled.

“It doesn’t feel real! I feel like an overachiever,” he laughed.
