Ronald Reuter of Orillia won a $100,000 prize with Instant Bingo Doubler (Game #2315).
Ronald, a father of four, said he’s an occasional lottery player. He especially likes Instant tickets and purchases them periodically.
Ronald said when he played his ticket and realized he won big, he was so excited, he didn’t know what to do, so he headed to the store to validate his ticket. On the way there, he stopped at his neighbour’s house to share the news.
“He was stunned when he checked my ticket on the OLG App.”
The 86-year-old then told his wife about his win.
“She believed me immediately and was thrilled,” he said. “I couldn’t sleep for a while.”
He plans to share his winnings with his kids and complete some renovations.
“I feel very fortunate,” he concluded.
Instant Bingo Doubler is available for $5 a play and the top prize is $100,000. Odds of winning any prize are one in 3.75.
OLG supports safe play and wants to keep the fun in the game. That’s why OLG is proud to be a leader in promoting responsible gambling with our globally recognized PlaySmart program.
The winning ticket was purchased at Petro Canada on Atherley Road in Orillia.
