Oz Lotto results are always nerve-racking. It is the time people are left in the most in suspense and Tuesday’s lotto results have done just this. Many were fuming at the hour delay of the lotto results and took to social media to express that.
However, after a one-hour wait, players have finally gotten their outcome of the lotto results and quite frankly, two players have hit the jackpot! So, two individuals have just become millionaires overnight with the other yet to realize that he or she has won a 25 million prize.
“We’re urging all Oz Lotto players to check their entries as soon as possible. If you discover you are holding the division one winning ticket contact The Lott on 131 868 to begin the process of claiming your prize.”
Well, regardless of the wait, it proved to be worthwhile as a 50 million shared prize is not something that happens often to many. According to 7News, The numbers drawn were 17, 31, 22, 11, 26, 36, and 4. Supplementary numbers were 16 and 6.
At this time, Lottery officials say that one of the winners is a 40-year-old woman from Sunshine Estate. She had missed the countless calls made to her upon the release of the lotto results. However, she has noticed the calls this morning and gave them a callback. Little did she know that she has become a millionaire! Her phone had been on silent yesterday.
While receiving the news that she had become a millionaire, she screamed and jumped up to wake her family members that were sleeping. According to the winner, the first thing she’ll purchase is a new car for her husband.
Officials are yet to get in touch with the West Australian winner who purchased their entry online. Now, these aren’t the only two winners. Another 892, 135 Aussies have earned the share of an 18 million cash prize on Tuesday the 25th of January.
