ABBOTSFORD — Abbotsford resident Susan Hoce had reasonable expectations ahead of the November 18 Lotto 6/49 prize draw.
According to a news release from the B.C. Lottery Corporation, Hoce thought she won a free play and $10,000 at most, but it turns out she was missing several zeroes as her Lotto 6/49 ticket actually won $1 million from the November 18, 2023 draw.
“I didn’t know what to think!” recalled Hoce of the moment she realized she won while at the Aldergrove Legion. “I couldn’t see the numbers properly and thought it was a glitch. It didn’t make any sound and I thought maybe $1,000 or $10,000!”
The Abbotsford resident was most excited to share the news with her cousin. “She couldn’t believe it either! She was very emotional and happy for me.”
