Lotto sees local man kissed by Lady Luck twice

A Lethbridge man has made friends with Lady Luck for the second time in a year.

James Hill recently won $100,000 on POKER LOTTO, not long after winning $200,000 on a scratch-and-win ticket in February.

Hill says it took him a minute to believe what he saw on the store’s self-scanner screen.

“I couldn’t read the screen at first,” he says. “I had to scan it three times and then have the
cashier scan it for me again.”

When he won the $200,000 he planned to buy a new vehicle and put the rest into savings. This time however he says the plan is to put the money in the bank and relax.

The winning ticket was purchased from the Circle K located at 2515 Highlands Road W in
Lethbridge. He won his second major prize of the year by matching all five cards drawn on the May 14 nightly draw.
