Norwegian Tipping | Eurojackpot: Single winner ran away with 1.17 billion

Game deadline in Eurojackpot is Friday at 19. Here you play.

A German Eurojackpot player took the entire first prize pot alone in Tuesday’s draw, and thus walked away with NOK 1,172,304,210.

Here at home we can enjoy not just one but two new millionaires:

A Norwegian player shared the third prize pot with eight foreign players and can enjoy NOK 1.5 million in his account.

We also received an additional national winner of NOK 1 million.

Here at home we can enjoy not just one but two new millionaires:

– The wife was so happy that she was sweating

The lucky third prize winner was a 71-year-old man from Drammen in Viken. He was sitting at home on the sofa with his wife when he received the unexpected phone call from Norsk Tipping.

– Oh! he exclaims when he gets confirmation that it is from Norsk Tipping.

– Right now I’m sitting here drinking a Diet Coke and I’m a little depressed about an expensive car expense, he explains jokingly.

When we were finally able to reveal that he was the lucky winner of exactly NOK 1,568,025, there was full jubilation in the living room.

– The fool, you say that? Then I can afford that bill. But of all days, now I was really happy, laughs the dramatist.

In the background there were happy shouts.

– The wife was so happy that she was sweating. Damn, that’s fantastic, he laughs.

He could assure us that he would manage the prize well. In addition, the daughter should also enjoy it.

– I got a damned expensive bill for the car today, so maybe I should tell the seller that I’d rather buy the car I was looking at earlier, he adds with a laugh.

When asked if they should celebrate the win that same evening, the new millionaire replies:

– I guess I’ll have another glass of Diet Coke.

The 71-year-old had bought the winning voucher on his mobile phone.

Millionaire winner does not pick up the phone

We made several attempts to contact the winner of the national additional prize on Tuesday evening – without success. So: If you are a woman from Oslo with missed calls from Norsk Tipping’s winning number 625 60 000, there may be very good news in store.

Norsk Tipping will make new attempts to get hold of the woman in the coming days. The article will be updated upon response.
