A Lotto 6/49 ticket bought in Surrey wins $32-million jackpot
The B.C. Lottery Corporation says the $32-million Lotto 6/49 Gold Ball jackpot ticket was purchased in Surrey, with the winner yet to claim the prize.
The winner of Saturday’s $32-million Lotto 6/49 jackpot bought the ticket in Surrey, B.C., the B.C. Lottery Corporation says.
The corporation said it will not disclose the ticket’s exact retail purchase location or the winner’s name until the prize is claimed.
The prize was not won through the classic set of winning numbers. It came from the 10-digit raffle number included on every ticket for the Gold Ball jackpot. The winning sequence was 00461505-01, and a Gold Ball rather than a white ball was drawn, awarding the jackpot.
In a statement Sunday, BCLC said the Gold Ball Draw guarantees players either a $1-million Guaranteed Prize or the growing Gold Ball Jackpot, which starts at $10 million. The odds of winning the Gold Ball jackpot depend on the number of tickets sold.
