Five people became Lotto millionaires, and in addition, a million prize went to a cooperative bank the last Saturday before the big Super Draw on Easter evening.
About. NOK 14 million was in the first prize pool on Saturday 9 April. On Saturday 16 April, there is a super draw in Lotto, where around 50 extra Lotto millionaires are drawn who win 1 million kroner – and that is in addition to the ordinary Lotto draw.
In the next Lotto draw, 50 additional millionaires will be drawn. Here you deliver your coupon.
The Lotto Millionaires
These are the five Lotto millionaires:
- Man from Drammen
- Woman from Sør-Fron in the Inland
- Woman from Bergen
- Woman from Fana in Bergen
- Man from Hå in Rogaland
Man from Drammen
– Wow, that’s great!
The Drammen man had not checked his Lotto coupon and was not fully prepared for the good news.
– This is completely insanely raw. Glad I delivered that coupon, the man said about the system coupon which gave him some extra small prizes so that he passed 2.6 million kroner in total prize.
– This will be a very good Easter, stated the man, who is in his 40s.
Woman from Sør-Fron
It was quiet at the other end when Norsk Tipping had introduced itself and asked if she had checked her Lotto coupon.
– And that means?
– That you have seven right and have won over 2.5 million kroner.
– Now I’m a little put out. 2.5 million? I have been playing Lotto for many years but have never been near this. It was violent. Thank you very much for a nice phone call, the woman said.
She won a 5-week coupon she delivered with her mobile in early March.
On Saturday, there is a super draw in Lotto. Here you deliver your coupon.
Woman from Bergen
The Bergen woman did not answer the first call, but saw the number and managed to check her coupon before Norsk Tipping tried for the second time.
– It was absolutely incredible to see such a large amount, for an experience. We are on Easter holiday, and now there was an atmosphere here, said the happy woman.
She won on a coupon with fixed numbers.
– I have delivered the 5-week-old for many years, but have never been close to any major prizes. But this will be the Easter we will never forget, she said.
Woman from Fana, Bergen
There were some tears of joy at the winner from Fana when Norsk Tipping called with the million message. She had just cleared away four large homemade pizzas with the family and threw herself on the sofa to watch Kompani Lauritzen when Norsk Tipping’s winning number lit up on the screen. She had saved that.
– Are you kidding now? Guri, so much fun! So lovely! Now I am completely in shock, exclaims the happy Bergen man.
– This is the kind you just go and dream about.
When asked what she would like to spend the prize on, the Bergen woman laughs:
– I just bought a new car, and worked hard to pay for it, so this comes in incredibly handy. It feels absolutely amazing, she cheers.
Man from Hå
The winner from Hå was in the barn when the Lotto draw went on TV, and was thus completely unaware of the million prize when the phone rang.
– Oi, oi, oi, oi… The first reaction comes while the winning message sinks in.
– Now I was a little out of breath here.
Then there are a couple of cheers before he continues:
– Fy søren. This is absolutely incredible. Now I have to call my wife right away, says the astonished winner before he explains that the whole family is outdoors this weekend in connection with a tournament.
Before you call – do you have any plans for the prize?
– I have been sitting lately with plans to build a new barn and looked a little at equity and such, so this is actually absolutely fantastic, he says renewed.
– I have played Lotto for a long time, but had never really expected anything like that.

Winning Chance Lotto
To win the first prize in Lotto, the player must have 7 correct winning numbers out of 34 possible. This means that if you play one row, the theoretical probability of getting 7 straight is 1: 5.37 million per row (rounded up to 1: 5.4 million per row). In other words, there are 5.4 million possible combinations of 7 numbers when you subtract 7 from the 34 numbers. Statistically, you win a prize with 4 straight or better on average on every fifth coupon in five rows.
Total number of premium payments in 2021: 12,036,126

Number of million prizes in 2021: 162 (included cooperative bank winners)
