The Adelaide man scored the 1st Prize in Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot draw 10851, drawn Friday 17 May 2024.

The winning man missed a couple of missed calls from lottery officials late last week but shortly returned the call to discover the revelation he was $101,000 richer.
“That’s such good news!” he cheered.
“Oh wow! Thank you so much. It’s definitely the most I’ve ever won.
“I wasn’t having the greatest week with my health, but this has really made my day.
“I’ve been lying in bed recovering and I decided to check my Lucky Lotteries ticket. I couldn’t believe it.
“I had a couple of mates; they need some help with things that have broken down. One of them needs a new battery for his lawn mower.
“They’re great friends and they look after me too.
“Thank you so much. I’m a happy man!”
His winning entry was two random numbers.
