Arlan Musgrave of Hiawatha is celebrating after winning $150,000 with THE BIGGER SPIN INSTANT game.
A father and grandfather, Arlan has been a weekly lottery player with OLG for many years, enjoying INSTANT games and seeking out the newest offerings. This marks his first significant win.
“I was at home, sitting in my chair and began to play my ticket,” Arlan recalled at the OLG Prize Centre in Toronto. “I saw that the numbers matched and the prize was a big one. I was definitely excited. I looked at the ticket over and over again to confirm what I was seeing was real.”
To confirm his win, Arlan went to the store to validate his ticket. “When the clerk checked my ticket, she was so excited for me.”
Sharing the news with a friend, Arlan said, “She thought it was a prank ticket at first,” he laughed. “She was extremely happy for me too.”
“After playing for so long, it feels good to have won,” Arlan said.
For now, Arlan plans to save his winnings.
