A pit stop for gas allowed Bill Cash to stumble upon some added money walking away with the $500,000 Extra prize.
It is from the May 9th 2025 Lotto Max draw.
“I gave my ticket to the retailer,” recalled Cash of the moment he realized he won. “They scanned it on their machine and then motioned me over to see the amount I won!”
The Prince George resident first shared the news with his daughter. “She said I was full of it.”
Cash plans to celebrate with friends and mentioned he will invest some of his winnings. He also is looking into purchasing a 57 convertible.
He purchased the winning ticket at Four Rivers Co-op on Westgate Avenue in Prince George.
So far in 2025, B.C. lottery players have redeemed more than $18 million in winnings from the Extra and over $102 million from Lotto Max.
