A 63-year-old Dunchurch man is $50,000 richer after winning the top prize with Instant Cash Multi-Win.

Ontario Lottery and Gaming says Nigel A, a retired school teacher, is no stranger to winning big. He has won two other times in 2014 and 2019.

He said he discovered his win while playing his ticket at his favourite store. “I had my ticket validated and pumped my fist in the air!” he shared while at the OLG Prize Centre in Toronto to collect his winnings.

When asked what it’s like to win the lottery for a third time, Nigel said, “It feels surreal. I’m living my dream.”

With his winnings Nigel plans to take a vacation in Honduras and buy an ATV.

Officials say the ticket was purchased the McKellar General Store.
