A man from Young was shaken out of his winter slump after receiving a life-enhancing call from lottery officials informing him he’d won $100,000 in Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot.
The Hilltops resident held the 1st Prize winning entry in Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot draw 11022, drawn Monday 7 July 2025.
The winning man, who had “never even won a meat tray”, was shocked to discover his ticket had delivered him a hot $100,000 win.
“That’s very exciting! Wow!” he exclaimed. “I’ve never even won a meat tray. Normally, when I win something, it’s a $29 win—max!
“It’s freezing cold where I am, and I’m not coping. I might’ve been here all my life, but I still haven’t gotten used to it. I’ve had some friends move to Queensland and it’s looking very promising.
“This win has really cured my winter blues today!
“I thought it was a scam at first when I received an email from you. I looked at it and thought, ‘Oh no, not another one!’ but it’s legitimate. “Thank you very much!”
Although the winning man initially had no idea how he’d spend his new found wealth, he eventually warmed to the idea of visiting friends in the Sunshine State for a change of climate.
“You know what! I might take a few weeks off and see my friends in Queensland. Enjoy some sun!” he revealed. “You’ve made my day!”
